Well I apologize if I came off that way. But, as usual there are two side to most stories and both should be stated. Lots of people are fat for other reasons than being lazy. I agree that the majority of americans are fat and lazy although some are fat for other reasons.
My mom had hypertension and sugar diabeties. She was over weight because when she ate within 30 minutes she would fall asleep and be out for a couple of hours.The diabeties was always worse when she ate carbs...rice or potatoes were worse than sugar for her. She would walk and exercise as much as she could. Mom died last month from pancreatic cancer. She lost over a hundred pounds mostly from December until March 5. There was nothing left but skin draped over bones at the end. She fought to be healthy and still lost the battle.
Enough doom and gloom. There was a man in the town next to where I live that died a couple of years ago. He was in his 20's. He was sooo hughe that when he died they had to take a chainsaw and cut the wall off of his bedroom to take his body out of the house. He was over 700 pounds. He was a nice guy but could or would not try to control his eating habits and vertainly did not try to exercise.
One other thing before I stop babbling like a brook. When I am on the low carb I do NOT follow it to the tee. I eat huge amounts of veggies and some LEAN meat , but try to avoid most of the fat. I have to avoid sugar and bread.
