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.

Finally, an expert who agrees with me

A recent issue of JAMA reviewed positively the book What to eat: an aisle by aisle guide. . . by Marion Nestle, Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2006. $30, ISBN 0-86547-7043.

The reviewer thought it was well written and indexed, and I was impressed to read that a nutritionist says what I do. . . "eat less, move more" and eat lots of fruits and vegetables and go easy on junk food (we called this "eating all the colors" in the old days).
