Obesity In America.

Quite frightening isn't it?
This chart stops at 2000 but you can see a steady rise accross the board. While some of us consider this a cosmetic issue, obesity is in fact a serious health risk. An apple a day or staying active is not just a good suggestion but seems to be mandatory to maintain good health. It is simply to easy for us to consume foods that do nothing but pack on weight.
This is quite eye opening in my humble opinion.

The number of obese adults has doubled in just 20 years, with 67 percent of the adult population overweight or obese, according to recent figures from the Centers for Disease Control.
