We're getting fatter?!??

We've seen that headline too many times!! A new study predicts that 43% of Americans will be obese by the year 2018! (We're about 31% obese now.)

WTF people?? Sure, we can blame it on a million things: Sedentary workplaces, too-busy lives that eradicate gym time and encourage emotional eating, super-high-calorie restaurant fare, huge portions, fad diets that make us fatter in the end, etc, etc. But we MUST fight back against our fattening lifestyles!

Here's an easy, fun tip to get us moving in the right direction: Next time you're stressed out and want a pleasure-kick from food, conjure up a juicy fantasy in your mind and make yourself orgasm instead. The resulting dopamine rush will feel fabulous and most likely eliminate your urge to stuff your face with brownies!

More interesting info about the study. It predicts that "by 2018, Colorado would be the only state where less than 30% of adults would be obese. In six states--Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, Ohio, Oklahoma, and South Dakota--more than 50% of adults would be obese."

Ouch!!
