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.

Your Super Bowl Party

I shouldn't be surprised, but our government cares about our Super Bowl Parties! Here's some advice from the CDC if you are planning a get-together next Sunday.

  • Eat healthy before you go to the party so you won’t be as likely to overindulge.
  • Hosting the party? Although you may choose to have the typical pizza, wings, and chips, add some healthy snacks to the menu.

  • Include fresh fruits and vegetables such as apple halves or carrot sticks.
  • Provide fat-free, low-fat, or low-calorie foods and beverages.
  • Offer foods and beverages low in added sugars; and serve foods that are low in salt and sodium.
It is also suggested that you protect your pets and children, and that guests park about a block away so they get some exercise.
