You are what you eat!

I attended my second Dodger game of this season yesterday. I’ll be telling you about 26 more attendances over this season. I have commented about the image of Humankind becoming more and more unattractive. A couple friends and I have some major conversations about this. But I truly have to post this or I’ll just burst. People are FATTER than ever and getting FATTER. I cannot explain it anymore. I was talking to a person I know and she said it best: “You just don’t wake up one day and boom you’re fat!” We think that is the case, right? But no… it happens so gradually that there is no way someone can mistake that it is happening. When you keep letting out the belt or buying new pants/dresses, when the kids are no longer looking like kids but overweight blobs then you know it is happening and it needs some attention. Some people call it a lack of control over everything else in their lives that drives people to EAT like there’s no tomorrow. Others call it genetics. I have a predisposition to being overweight too, but I know that and I work on it. Others call it a character flaw. I just call it amazing because when you think about it, when I was at the game there were quite a large population of big mamajammas! Of the over 50,000 people at the stadium I would say that obesity was quite at home to about 60% to those in attendance. If this were a city, the Health Dept. should come in and put everyone on a strict diet of green-stuff and water. Alas, the diet served up at Dodger Stadium along with plenty of other stadiums, schools, and vending machines alike was dogs, nachos, beer, cotton candy and all other things fat and quick! Could you just image what we are teaching our kids… could you only image why they’re bigger and badder than we will ever be. Remember the Weather Girls (aka Two Tons of Fun)? Imagine a world full of big people and I don’t mean in a good way.
