We are a nation of “fat cats” in more ways than one.  As the prosperity level of the people in the U.S. have grown, so have our waistlines. It seems we are a rapidly “spreading” nation and if we continue to ignore warnings to lose the weight, the following are some “highs” we have to look forward to.

We are a nation of “fat cats” in more ways than one.  As the prosperity level of the people in the U.S. have grown, so have our waistlines.  A CDC study finds that over the past 25 years, obesity rates have increased to 34% of U.S. adults over age 20.  It seems we are a rapidly “spreading” nation and if we continue to ignore warnings to lose the weight, the following are some “highs” we have to look forward to.

Sounds like an oxymoron, but it’s true. I often hear people saying they are afraid to lift weights because they don’t want to gain weight or look bigger. The error is in their perception, they couldn’t be father from the truth and here’s why?

Generally when we say we want to lose weight what we really mean is we want to lose fat, the loose fleshy stuff hanging from arms and thighs or spilling over into a muffin top. Be honest can you pinch some? If not, why read on you’re already a god or goddess. For everyone else, that doughy stuff between your fingers are the glad bags of the body. That’s right, fat is essentially stored energy in the form of fatty acids that can also contain fat soluble chemicals some even toxic.
