Sad news. More Americans are now obese than those who are merely overweight.
So finds the latest statistics from the
federal government.
The new numbers from the National Center for Health Statistics show that more than
34 percent of Americans are obese compared to 32.7 percent who are
overweight. Just under 6 percent are "extremely" obese.
Wanna lose weight? Just dump the sugar, quickie carbs and junk food. Over and over, I hear from happy, now-healthy sugar addicts, who've turned away from sugar only to find that the weight peels right off.
But there's encouraging news, too.Weight loss could be a phone call away.
