Of course, it helps that everyone rides a bike here or walks as well .. the magic of a little exercise besides moving a keyboard :-)

Need to boycott 24 ounce sodas in school and supersize me EVERYTHING... from the US.

Also need to get kids started on TRX straps early in life .. they can take it with them anywhere .. unlike a gym or weights ... and have no excuse any longer for not staying truly fit and functionally strong. http://www.fitnessanywhere.com

It's funny you say that. A friend of mine just got back from a week vacation to Disney World in Orlando. They are in shape people that actually spent the last year as a goal to get into even better shape for this trip. Anyway, they said they noticed there were 2 kinds of people there for the most part - Fat Americans, and in-shape foreigners. Hardly anyone was inbetween/normal. It was one exterme or the other.

Now, it's obvious anywhere that a lot of Americans just don't care and have become overweight. But it really becomes apparant at places like Disney World where you can see the side-by-side comparisons.

We went to a waterpark here in Phoenix on Sunday

Knowing how fat we are getting in general; I was still astounded to see just how many adults were well overweight. Fat girls in bikinis has become the norm, just let it ALL hang out girls! And the guys, forget about it they were no better.

I would say at least 90% of the adults were extremely overweight. In fact, outside of me and my wife, I counted 6 adults who appeared hight/weight proportionate. Everyone else was huge.

And you could SMELL them - the heat of the day plus walking uphill or stairways to slide queues left them huffing and sweaty and SMELLY - you could smell a line of people from hundred feet away. It was disgusting.

Even more sad, I dont think I have ever seen so many fat kids in one place in my life - no joke. How could any parent allow their children to get so fat?!

Looking over to a herd of fatties - its easy to see how they allow it - the junk these people eat is mind boggling

and they cant help it huh? They should be ashamed of themselves. This visit to the waterpark really hit home how big this problem has become. National disaster IMO

It's pretty sad rkymtn. I forgot to mention above at Disney World was at one of the water parks as well.

People are lazy. I mean, it would take effort to make a lunch for the family and bring it into the water park. So instead they rely on the food the park has there and none of it is healthy and it is very expensive whereas it would be so much cheaper to buy some bread and make sandwiches or whatever.

Actually, it DOES tie in to football. The country will get fatter, and soon Bowlen is going to have to authorize that stadium seats be made wider. What does that mean? Less seats. Less season tickets. Less tickets in general.

Thus, tickets will be at an even HIGHER premium than they are right now. People think they're expensive now? We haven't even seen high yet, at this rate.

They will also need to reinforce the supports in the upper decks least the top 1/2 of the stadium come crashing down under the weight of fan girth- Broncos will have to pass on this expense via ticket price increase. Let the fans 'eat' the cost since they seem to have no qualms eating everything else!

Jana® · 07-30-2007, 10:48 PM

Now ya see why I want a ticket on the lower level..

Saccharin (Sweet'n'Low) and sucralose (Splenda) are both MUCH better. Saccharin - despite what you may have heard - is probably the safest food additive ever created. The infamous 1970s test that caused bladder cancer in rats has been completely discredited. First - the rats were fed only pure saccharin, and in greater volumes than their standard food intake. Second - the cancerous action in their bladders had ZERO realation to the human digestive system. And Third - that study used bad syringes, and the plastic or something from the syringes was found to have actually caused the cancer. Some soft drink companies are switching to sucralose, including Canada Dry. I hope more will follow. For me, it's only Sweet'n'Low in my coffee, tea and even smoothies.

I buy the yoplait lt. smoothies...which have splenda in them. I am trying to quit the dt. coke altogether but have been trying the dt. coke with splenda...I don't care for it as much...it tastes sweeter than aspartame...more like dt. pepsi.

I am terribly addicted to coffee lately though...

BroncoBuff · 07-30-2007, 11:52 PM

Wow - they have a separate Diet Coke with Splenda? I didn't know that ... For separate medical reasons I don't drink caffeine+aspartame together any more. My Diet Pepsi habit (1+ liter a day) was causing my heart sinus node to PSNR - pre-sinus node rhythms (not as bad as it sounds actually). So I gave up Diet Pepsi 99% and now drink only Diet 7-Up, Canada Dry Ginger Ale, A&W Creme Soda and Squirt. All very good, and no caffeine.

I am a coffee-holic too Sass. Not a whole lot, just 2 mugs a day in AM, but I must have it E V E R Y morning. I use Sweet'n'Low only in coffee and tea, and have totally lost that pre-rhythmic beat in my heart (again, not as serious as it sounds).

My cardioilogist showed me studies where it said Saccharin was found to be "probably the safest food additive ever created," which is where I got that quote.

RhymesayersDU · 07-30-2007, 11:53 PM

I enjoy the ice cream and stuff made with splenda... But as far as iced tea goes, I think it's disgusting. Pink packets (sweet n low) only, please!

I'm weird though...no sugar in my coffee...which is a good thing. Although, I do like a little half and half in it.

Atwater His Ass · 07-31-2007, 12:42 PM

I love coffee and iced tea. I don't use any sweetners, creams, etc in either, although I do like a little real lemon (not articficially flavor /puke) with my tea from time to time.

And maybe once a month I'll treat myself to a mocha or latte from starbucks or equivalent. Can't be good all the time.

smalltowngrll · 07-31-2007, 01:37 PM

Here's a good excuse:

Jana® · 07-31-2007, 09:22 PM

I like Splenda.. I honestly don't taste much difference between Splenda and Sugar. Splenda is finer though.

Ain't no thang, Ass! (I mean Atwater...)

About a year ago, Starbucks changed to all reduced-fat milk (unless otherwise specified), so there's not much guilt at all there ... I never hesitate to stop for my favorite -

Venti no-foam latte with an extra shot ... four packs of Sweet'n'Low, please.
