Obesity and diabetes are at epidemic proportions in America's youth. And of course they're linked. In that case I blame the parents. Parents should never let their kids get fat. It's not like a 12-year-old understands a healthy diet and the importance of exercise.
But ya know, parents are too busy to take the time to spend the necessary time with their children. On top of that, they're too selfish to make sacrifices in their own lives (see "Lack of Time" in previous sentence) to adjust their own eating and exercise habits (among other things) to set a good example for their children.
Hey on diet drugs, don't forget Fen-Phen or whatever the hell it was. What people aren't realizing is that they are most likely replacing one risk with another.
I lost 75 lbs. in about a year. Trust me, if I can do it, anybody can. And no, I didn't use ANY of the diets you hear about on TV, the radio, the paper, etc. It just takes a little discipline and self-motivation to do it. And here I am over 6 months later and the weight is off, and I don't even feel like I'm really trying to keep my weight down right now, I feel like I'm just eating normally, etc.
