You peaked my interest on that Super Size me "movie" so I rented it - wow! what an eye opener huh?? I knew most of the nutritional stuff, but to watch that guy go downhill as fast as he did! (not to mention his weight LOL) What's really upsetting to me was the fact that the State of Texas has FIVE out of the top ten fattest cities in the country! yikes!! OH!! and that young girl on there who had gotten to talk to jared...remember her? she sounded so hopeless because he was pushing the Subway diet and she said she couldn't afford something like that so she would just be overweight! huh?? has no one ever told this poor girl about nutrition? how to eat SENSIBLY?? holy cow!! I'm yelling at the TV sayin' "come on over here to TOPS sweetie! We'll teach you how to eat sensibly! You don't have to eat subway everyday to be thin and healthy!!" arrgghh!! And what's up with the public schools?? When I was in school we NEVER ate ding dongs or chips or had pop available to us! Thank God I homeschool or my kid would be a fat as I am! .....by the way I LOVED the little segment on the alternative school that was feeding the kids healthy, nutritional foods (the so-called "troubled" kids) and the amazing changes in their behaviors! That alone should be an eye opener to these darn schools!!!! Taking soda out of the schools is NOT enough! ack!! It was kind of a humorous look at how americans eat, but it was also so heart breaking that so many in this country are clueless to health and nutrition! (but then, there are many medical doctors who are really clueless LOL) *sigh* well! I'm thinking all of who are TOPS members need to get out there and start showing these folks how it's done......SENSIBLY!!!!!! OKIE DOKIE....gettin' off the old soap box now LOL - thanks for the heads up on that - very good, very eye opening and VERY motivating, not only for myself and getting healthier, but I REALLY want to get out there and start talking to more folks about what TOPS can do....and what better way to do that than by example right?? LOL just tonight I went to 3 different places after my TOPS meeting and was so proud of myself and my loss that I struck up conversations at every single one of them...why?? cuz I KNEW they would ask me how and I could tell them all about TOPS!!! anyhoo...gotta run hubby back to the truckstop, get a couple hours of sleep and start my day all over again LOL Hugs!!
