Re: American's Problem: Obesity

Tran's American's Problem: Obesity 
I agree with you, about how unhealthy and lazy Americans are. I for myself workout everyday to stay in shape and look better everyday, but thats just me, I like to look good and be fit. I cant speak for all of Americans but when they don't choose to workout or run because they "have no time," I just ask them one question, "how many hours do we have per day?" So time should never be an issue on why people are not working out, but i can understand why some people cant workout because illness or injuries, and thats fine. I just can't stand people who say they have no time to cook so they rather eat fast food that isn't healthy at all. Then when the start getting fat or having health problems, they blame the fast food companies which yes they do contribute to those problems, but in the end its the consumer's fault. Because i'm pretty sure all of the fast food products have nutrition facts, and its not that hard to tell which products are healthy and unhealthy, so their should be no excuses saying "I didn't know it was unhealthy." And in todays time there are so much healthy food you can buy at the market, and heat up in like 10 minutes and takes no skill at all to cook and no time. People who just say they have no time are just lazy, its just ridiculous. Americans should start taking the stairs instead of elevators or escalators, they should walk to get the mail and not take a car, just simple things can make a big difference in health, I hope Americans change their ways.
