That's not the ONLY way you get fat, true most people gorge on fast food and bad for you snacks, but I am fat, and We never ate out tons as kids I was skinny till I was 17 and then I went into a level 13 group home, that didn't allow us leave the property unless it was to go to school, or go on store run or go out with our personal advicate to go shopping, or unless you had approved home leave, and if you wanted to go walking there had to be enough staff to take you and enough to leave behind to watch the other girls, AND the house had to be calm and not in chaos, or with girls on suicide watch, or with girls acting out and distroying things.
and you had to have outing privilages and you had to not be grounded, and most times I didn't have outing privilages cause of one stupid reason or another, mainly loosing my level privilages by not making my bed in the morning and not doing morning chores.
There was ZERO NONE ZIP SILCH exorcise going on, we were not even allowed to do exorcise video's unless we had tv privilages. now I know there's things you can do on your own with out leaving the house, butI never thought about it.
and we ate home cooked meals 3 times a day not much junk at home . and if you didn't eat all your meal you got a zero for that period/ Which ment a loss of level which ment loss of privilages like tv and leaving the house which could mean loss of visits from family . I had my helping and 3 other people's plates, most meals, because I wasn't full, so that my fellow housemates wouldn't get punished for not finishing their meal and I wasn't getting proper exercise. so consequently I got fat, plus they shoved a ton of meds down our throats 3 times a day, that had known side affects such as increase in weight gain, most the meds I didn't need.
They did finally impliment an exercise program once a week by the time I was getting ready to leave but damage was done I went from a size 16 to a size 24 in the 3 years I was there. Proof that even if it's home cooked and there for "normal food" that to much is bad.,
Today we rarely eat out, and I am still fat cause I am lazy and I don't do any exorcise and cause I eat wrong kinds of foods and our meals are not nutritionaly complete, cause the ones cooking don't know diddly shit about nutrtion and neither do I and I only eat about once a day and even at that somedays I don't eat at all
So all the blame does not lie on parents taking their kids to mcd's every day since 5 y.o People get fat other ways on normal food. There's a small percentage of people who're fat and out of shape and unhealthy entirely independantly of fast foods.

people go overweight because of the likes of mcd's and eating it since they were 5 year olds. some parents bring their kids to mcd's 3 times a day because they dont know how to cook, or because its too conveinent. it in turn causes many diseases that kids would likely never have got.
there are commercials on tv now that say if your kids are not active your kid will die at a young age. they have some of them saying "are you going to the party... no i have to go for triple bi pass" or whatever in the commercial. there are about 3 dif commercials with about 5 dif surgical procedures needed as an excuse for not doing something with some other kid.
in the usa the # of fast food restaurants is incredible. makes it too easy and to conveinent. which is why it was said that 70% of usa is obese. the supersize movie said that. how true is it?? i dont know. but i do know i dont see as many thin or height/weight proportionate people that i used to and im in canada.
i was once 196 lbs but i changed and in 5 years lost 75 lbs. i cant do cardio so its a little harder for me to lose weight.

Obesity surgery cure for diabetes? - 
Profile
A woman I know had the lap band surgery, and she lost a ton of weight, but eventually had to have the surgery reversed. She was eating as much as she could, then "purging" so she could eat more, and she ended up very ill.
