- Big, bigger, Its not usually you hear about the fat people in America, and either not usually you hear about they’re getting younger and younger, and fatter and fatter. It seems quite impossible to stop that circle because there are so many fast food restaurants over there, but now they have got an idea – David Allison has invented the TV-Cycle.

A disease?

We do a lot often hear about people being so fat they can’t even do the morning with one breakfast, but several of them. They eat and eat and eat, and can’t even walk over to the television for changing the channel. But I think it’s not a disease but rather a dependence that morning "snack" eating chips from the school canteen, chocolate muffins and a can cola – and the dinner really only become more and more unhealthy days go by. As the junkie food junkie says, is the only exercise she gets, is the 15 minutes she uses to go to the bus - and she has no sports at all!

What’s healthy living?

Healthy living must be when you can do exercise, play football and run for a while. It’s defiantly not healthy living that your BMI is over 30 and the average adults in USA watches television 31 hours per week. Only 44 (out of 100) don’t eat fast food, but at least 10 of the 44 people don’t exercise regularly. Healthy living is also eating healthy, and that doesn’t include fast food. I’ll use “Super Size Me” as an example – within for a month: He dined at McDonald's restaurants three times per day, sampling every item on the chain's menu. He also "super-sized" his meal when asked. Spurlock consumed an average of 20.92 megajoules or 5,000 kcal per day during the experiment. As a result, he gained 11.1 kg, and experienced mood swings, sexual dysfunction, and liver damage. It took Spurlock fourteen months to lose the weight gained from his experiment. And a child with a BMI so big, he can’t even say it, it would take incredible long time to lose 20-30 kilo.
