Hugging and Chalking

This blog is about obesity and the inanity/insanity it spawns, the encroaching lawsuits and growing diet industry. Obesity is a matter of genes and personal responsibility. You can have an endocrine problem, or you can have a balance problem (too many calories and too little exercise). It’s not where you eat, but how much you eat; it’s not McDonald’s fault, or Mama’s fault, or Washington’s fault if your body is too fat or too thin. Rosabelle.

Just in time for the holidays

"SAN JOSE, Calif. -- The most popular dieting brands are now weighing in with calorie counters and nutritional guides designed for personal digital assistants and combination PDA-mobile phones. Just in time for the season of bountiful temptation."

Wired News has the full story here.

"Weight Watchers is targeting the estimated 30 percent of its followers who already own a PDA and hopes others will buy new mobile devices -- which start about $100 -- just to help them keep count. Atkins wants to offer its mobile carb guide for all kinds of cell phones, which, unlike PDAs, already are ubiquitous."

Is there really anyone out there who doesn't know to eat less and move more? Do you need a PDA to lose weight?
