crazy but I did like that map.

Anyway (and I'm no fan of statistical analysis) a new study is suggesting that being overweight has more to do with genes than environment.

Shocking eh? Not.

(I can't find the link, oh well)

Anyway maybe they should ban people with fat genes from making babies instead of punishing restaurants for daring to feed hungry fat people (and yes that's sarcasm). Or maybe they should just let people be fat if they want and let people eat what they want.

Anyway Penn and Teller did a diets and nutrition Bullshit show that I thought was pretty good.

You put down 6000 calories a day in fast food and don't workout = you get fat


Granted there are a range of health issues like thyroid and genetics that can make you overweight, but you can't use that as an excuse all the time. Look at the diet and physical activity of an overweight person and you can tell if its genetic.
