Today I was reading that there are currently some 14 million
Australians who are now being classed as being overweight or obese. This is an
incredibly scary statistic to comprehend in a country of only about 22 million
people this means that over half the population of Australia are overweight or
obese.
We like most of the western world are eating ourselves literally to death.
All is not lost though - I know this because I fought my way back from sure obesity to lose 40kgs and get back my life. Making smarter nutrition choices and eating smaller portions is the key. Our bodies were not made to process copious amounts of processed and sugar laden junk foods. Remember it is very tough to overeat in terms of vegetables. The body simply will stop when it has had enough.
Get an hour of exercise each day - do something, anything - but move! Encourage the youth to and your kids to exercise and play sport. These are all simple things we can control, despite the fact that governments in their infinite wisdom are cutting finance to school sports programs while we face this epidemic.
