More and More

The weight loss industry is one of those that seems to be virtually recession proof. People are always looking for diet pills that work, a new exercise machine, new sporting wear, another yoga class, etc. etc. etc.  Our culture seems to be obsessed with weight loss while at the same over run with fast food restaurants offering up bigger and bigger portion sizes of greasy, calorie laden food.  What at first seems like a contradiction starts to make sense upon further reflection.  The more crap we eat, the more weight we have to lose!  The western world is suffering from over consumption on every level — more food, more weight loss, buying more, having bigger houses, more babies (Octumom), more and more of everying.  All this while so many suffer in other countries barely eatting enough to survive and living in poverty.  And all we can think of is buying another toy for our kids, a newer car, saving more, getting more.
