So, you dismiss all his work and research on the issue of fitness, because of his religious views?
Wow.
Guess you skipped right over this part...

Can you be overweight and still be healthy?
It's hard to say. One statement we make is it's better to be fat and fit than skinny and sedentary. But it's not because we are endorsing obesity; we are just telling you how dangerous it is to be sedentary. The surgeon general in 1996 encouraged us to collectively get 30 minutes of activity most days of the week. He also said recently that within 10 years we would have more people dying because of obesity than from smoking. So it's awfully hard to say that you can be fat and be healthy

No, I'm dismissing YOU 'cause you're an idiot who can't post two sentences in a row that don't contradict each other.
Without the benefit of the surrounding society, a corporation dies. If society looks at a corporation and says 'work, or die', what work should be demanded of the corporation for it to earn its survival?
While Wall St. is going through the roof, Main St. is paying all the bills.
Remember when teachers, public employees, Planned Parenthood, NPR and PBS crashed the stock market, wiped out half of our 401Ks, took trillions in taxpayer funded bailouts, spilled oil in the Gulf of Mexico, gave themselves billions in bonuses, and paid no taxes?
Yeah, me neither....

Where's the contradiction?

Oh, I already posted it. It had the word 'paean' in it. Go back and read it. Look up any difficult words you need to.
Oh, btw, at this point I think I've made my point. You posted what you think of 'them' and their group think. Because to you all group think is bad, unless it's a brand of white, rich group think. In another thread you posted that you think illegals should be at least as smart as animals.
And, Signym, it isn't fear that drives little Rappy. It snarling, tooth-baring greed, and hate.

Nope, no contradiction there, sorry.
Oh, you think that because of Dr Cooper's faith, that what he has to say about health is invalid ?
So, in brief, you HAVE no response, no reply, only to demagogue anyone who is religious, and dismiss everything they say, out of hand ?
Hell, talk about being narrow minded.
I'm an atheist, and could care less what religion Dr Cooper is. It's his work in the field of fitness that is relevant.
Got anything of SUBSTANCE ?

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

You're right.

I'm the only one who tried to keep the discussion on topic, and not descend into petty insults.
When challenged, all 1kiki did was balk, and try to interject a red herring, having nothing to do w/ the issue.

I have to admit that occasionally I see resturant commercials that make me want to eat what they're showing, yum, I love eating. My naturopath is telling me that I need to eat some protein every morning and something for lunch, plus snacks. That sounds tiring and annoying, I'm trying to do better at it but its annoying because I like eating one big meal a day, usually at dinner, and a few little snacks. If I don't eat in the morning I'm not hungry later. If I do eat in the morning, as I've discovered this week, I'm ravenously hungry all day and its really distracting and I don't like it. I'm going to get fat if I keep eating breakfast every day, even just a tiny bit of it. But she's annimant about it, errrrrgh. She's also expensive too, I don't know how long I'll be able to afford this naturopathic mental health thing, we'll see how it goes.
When I was little I didn't care about food commercials, I was an extremely picky eater so I only liked what I liked.

She told me it was her experiences with the great depression that led to her overeating, and I believe it.
I will, however, agree that television and a sedentary lifestyle made a big difference with her sons.
Well as I said, if you have one overweight person in amongst a population of slender people, then it is definitely about personal choice and maybe some metabolism issues as well.
As far as I can tell, obese people used to be a lot rarer. If I take my family as an example, I had 2 skinny grandmothers who ate cake and biscuits and fatty meats and cream and butter. The difference was that neither of them drove, both worked hard and both only really ate food that they or someone they knew had prepared. Eating out was very, very rare. Take away unknown (except for the occasional fish and chips which used to be the only take away). I can see the generations getting heftier. Below me there are a couple of youngsters (20's) who really need to watch out because it aint good news to chunk up that young.
