Yeah it's amazing everywhere ya look people are just freaking huge ! we are so broke,..but obviously well fed. maby it's because everything is at the push of a button ? order a pizza over the internet WTH, it's too much a pain in the a$$ just to talk with someone over the phone ? and most "good food" is really expensive I can buy a NY for $5.99 a pound where as a pound of sliced turkey breast goes for $9.99 a pound ! when im at the supermarket im like caught in this flow of traffic surounded by all these hulking women and puffy faced butterball kids, and cant help but notice the over flowing shopping carts full of Hot Pockets, frenchfries, frozen pizzas, cereal, litres of soda, cans of chili, bags of doughnuts,..and not one f'ing apple, bananna or lousy a$$ed head of lettuce. Then looking in my cart it's totally the opposite half empty and looks like I raided farmers market minus the twelve pack of bud !

when i was a kid in the 70s, fat people, really fat people were rare. there was always a pudgy kid in the class but now I patrol school zones during the year and watch little waddling butter balls heaving their bulbous bodies across the crosswalk gasping for breath with every labored step. pendulous globs of fat jiggling with the cadence of the steps like a bag full of water balloons.

straight to the Latino fella pushing the icecream cart!

all my coworkers call me lucky as i am fit. i get tired of telling them its because i eat right and work...............YES WORK hard on the mat, in the ring and in the gym.

work....................are people scared of it?
