don't get me started on the diet crap. I honestly think that sugar substitutes will make you fatter than sugar. I personally avoid both of them. if something needs to be sweetened, I use honey.

I don't know what it is. with so many liberals moving south from up north because of "high taxes" (go figure), you would think the influx of liberals would make most in the south puke. thus causing weight loss.

Both smoked and those have very obvious effects on their health.
The point.....something else is causing obesity...Genetics, intake composition, activities...ect
Could it be the push for office jobs that require you to sit for 8 hours a day?
Could it be high fructose corn syrup?
Diabetes?
Balanced diet is critical. Think of a plant....if you have any or know how to grow them nutrients are 100% critical to how healthy it is.
I swanee, I just don't understand the infatuation (pun intended) of damnyankees and other inbreds with the physical conditions of Southerners. It's as if them damnyankees and other inbreds don't have a clue as to what real, I repeat REAL food is, and even if they have an inkling (maybe they've been to Cracker Barrel?) they cannot get beyond the bland, tasteless foods they have as staples, rather to chastise Southerners who know how to cook, and yep, know how to eat. Man, I am happy as a pig in slop that all y'all just stay the hell up nawth, feeling yo' bones through the skin every time you got an itch.

better yet, look up stevia, and why it was banned as a sweetener. you can get it now, but only as a dietary supplement. hmmm.
