The Weight of The Nation

HBO's documentary The Weight of the Nation began airing May 14, 2012.  It is a look into obesity in America.  I know there is a lot of information about obesity in the news lately, with good reason, but this is definitely worth watching. 

In the United States, currently 1/3 of our citizens are obese!  There are many consequences from this epidemic.  Some are financial, many are health related and many are mental as well.  This problem will not go away tomorrow but if we do not begin to turn the tide our children and grandchildren will be suffering from even worse consequences. 




The website has the links for the film and also good sources of information and links to take action as well in limiting the spread of this epidemic.

Take a look.  It is well worth it.
