Sometimes is seems like the battle against obesity is already lost on the current generation of adults. I’m not a doctor but it seems that even if some people ate a perfect, low calorie diet starting today, they still wouldn’t have enough of a life span left to get down to an ideal weight.

So some people are concentrating on children who have a better chance to unlearn bad habits before it’s too late for them as well.
