seriously. Maybe if we stopped tip toeing around the issue people wouldn't be sitting around thinking they didn't have a problem.
Exactly! And Pixie is right, it's not about the way people look. Heart disease, Diabetes etc can affect people of all sizes. It's what you eat and the exercise you do. Just because you happen to be blessed with a superfast metabolism doesn't mean you can eat junk and sit on your bum and not be affected by these diseases.

I would say people need to be better educated about food, portion sizes, nutrition etc but honestly the info is all out there and it is readily available. Who doesn't know that a Whopper with cheese and bacon and a large coke isn't good for you?!!
