Wake up! We're fat!

Twice as many Americans as Europeans can't stop shoving food into their mouths, a new study says. Americans used to be among the fittest and the tallest people in world. We've eaten our way off of that lofty perch, and we are sicker for it. We spend $2 TRILLION on health care--16% of the GDP. And yet, none of this makes us put down the Ho-hos, turn off Judge Judy, and go for a walk. Are we idiots? Or are we so lazy that we're unwilling to prevent our own untimely deaths by heart attack and diabetes? Either way, it's pretty sad.
