Well I would have had to say it constantly, given the number joggers, but I do admire those who have decided to fight back against the unsightly accumulation of fat that is such a feature of modern day living.Quote:

Here's another with a couple of salient extracts:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/di...-disaster.html
This week I went to the cinema in Washington DC. The theatre, part of the AMC chain, was selling popcorn and soda “combos” that the counter guy said made financial sense. He handed over a bag of popcorn big enough for an entire children’s party and a 54oz (1.5 litre) bucket of Coke. The Coke was too heavy to carry with one hand – almost the equivalent of five 330ml regular-sized cans.
The “exercise personal choice” and “let the food industry self-regulate” line of thinking demonstrably hasn’t worked. It has taken us to the point where, in less than 20 years, half of all Americans will be obese. And Britain is not as far behind the US as you might think – 25 per cent of women and 24 per cent of men are already in that category.
Did you finish the popcorn? The megabuckets here are ridiculously huge.
