A new study by the British Heart Foundation found that in the year 2000, the average British man was 16.9 pounds heavier than in 1986. The reason? Well believe it or not it was because they have been eating crappy food and not getting enough exercise.
They got some sharp cookies over there.
By studying official figures on body weight from 1986 and 2000 and calculating the food energy available during that time, researchers were able to work out the expected extra food eaten by men and women during that period. Not sure how the researchers figured out how much food was consumed but like I said these people are really sharp. The study was published in the British Journal of Nutrition.

more calories, less workout
Pseudo, I don't believe it. Call me skeptible, but I don't trust ANYTHING I read in the press anymore!
Everybody knows that people get fat because they have "the fat gene," not because they consume five thousand calories per meal!
Stupid scientists!

Andy no question some people are going to be fat because of genetics. But face reality most people are fat because they eat 5000 calories a day. And they are going to have diabetes, high blood pressure and strokes. But they will always be welcome at White Castle, Krispy Kreme and KFC.
God Bless America!
Pseudo, sure...blame the fatass!
Everybody KNOWS they can't help it.
