Weight problem in America...

You all know about the weight problem... aka obesity epempdic (spell?) in the US. I am really wondering why they will not stop making junk food. It was not like that 20 years ago. I was at Walgreens the other day and I noticed that Oreo had yet made another new way of Oreos. I see soooo many new food out everyday. They really need to put a stop to this, but I know they do it for the money. 20 years ago, they only had one kind of butterfinger bar, one kind of Reese Peanut butter cups, and so forth. Now they have like a million different kinds of Reese peanut butter cups, Oreos, etc. The latest in Oreo .. is the picture I took with my sidekick at Walgreens. No I did not buy it! LOL .. and the latest flavor in Reese Peanut butter cups. is the Elvis special limited edition Peanut butter and banana. Well, I confess I did try it and it was pretty good. Also, there is at least 100 kinds of poptarts (I don't eat them anymore... not for many years)... and few ways of poptarts like sticks, to go, halfies (2 half different flavors in one tart) .. etc.etc UGH.. also cartoon characters cereals. It was serioulsy never like that 20 30 years ago.

When I was in Florida, Alison and I were watchin the news... they did a story on Krispy Kremes, that they opened a new KK in China. Alison commented that that the chinese people will be fat..and then the news anchorperson mentioned that too! LOL YIKES!

Sorry just a vent. Just tired of seeing all those new products.

I am still struggling ... but doing pretty good for most part. I haven't checked my weight yet and I do need to be more stricter.

I was reading an article, I can't remember where, I wil have to look for it. Seattle is the fittest city, and I wonder how that can be because I see TONS of overweight people here.... like it is the style to be fat... whereas Miami is one of the fattest cities. I wonder how?????????????????????????? Hmmmm.

Off to bed now!

Goodnight
