Fat America

78 Million people in the United States in 2010 were obese.
  
The majority of people are surprised by this number, I'm not.




   How can we be surprised that we're all overweight and lazy when we have resources like this, where our grocery stores shop for us and deliver our groceries.  Now if you are 90 years old and in a wheel chair I understand, Call them up, have them bring it to you please by all means, thats why they are there. But if you are just fat.. and should probably be walking anyway... Get up lazy and walk your ass around the store and get your own groceries.  




And that brings us to the next issue, the scooters at the groceries stores.

Example A:
Your kids are going to be fat lazy fat asses, thank you for letting them use the handicap scooters.















Example B:
You should be walking around anyway, you aren't doing yourself any favors.












Now please don't get me wrong, I like to snack. As a matter of fact I'm eating a bowl of popcorn as I'm typing this up, but I'm by no means over weight either.  I like to exercise moderately, maybe a little Michelle Obama inspired, maybe a little "I care about my health inspired." Either way you won't catch me having anything but my mail delivered and if you see me riding anything around the store it will be a segway because... well that's always been a dream of mine. 

With all the body conscience stuff out there today my biggest pet peeve is when I'm standing in my doctors office and my overweight nurse is talking about how important being healthy is.  Well when you're 200 pounds heavier then I am you have no reason to lecture me, I'm positive I'm healthier then you. 

 
 It doesn't take much, maybe if you put down the remote control a few hours a day it would make a difference.  People have become have so lazy, kids have become so lazy. When people would rather stay inside when its beautiful outside and go on facebook or watch their DVR'd show.  It's pathetic, go for a walk, plant a garden, swim a little, put down the remote.  Lose a pound or two and maybe millions of people wouldn't be obese.
