I'm a New Yorker, and I DO notice a growing number of overweight people, even though I live in a low-key area of the suburbs of Long Island. I'm beginning to see a growing number of very young kids that are overweight. I guess their parents and western society courts unhealthy dieting habits and laziness, which is a shame. If only people would ride bikes everywhere like yours truly 
.
As for me, I live a pretty healthy lifestyle. I do year round cross country/track and field, lots and lots of sports over the summer, but I do indulge in snack pastries, softdrinks, and other sugary sweets and fast foods quite often.
When I see a McDonald's advertisement on TV promoting healthy foods, I sometimes chuckle at the sheer irony of it all. I mean, whats the point of sneaking in a few slices of apple when its paired up with french fries and a cheeseburger?

I hope I cleared that up.
