Australia's Rise To the Fattest Nation
I am currently in the US at a fitness conference so I was surprised to read the article below that we are now officially the Fattest nation in the world.
Who would have thought we have gone from fit and healthy bronzed aussies to a nation of over worked , over stressed and over weight people.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Australia has become the fattest nation in the world, with more than 9 million adults now rated as obese or overweight, according to an alarming new report.
The most definitive picture of the national obesity crisis to date has found that Australians now outweigh Americans and face a future "fat bomb" that could cause 123,000 premature deaths over the next two decades.
If the crisis is not averted, obesity experts have warned, health costs could top $6 billion and an extra 700,000 people will be admitted to hospital for heart attacks, strokes and blood clots caused by excess weight.
The latest figures show 4 million Australians — or 26% of the adult population — are now obese compared to an estimated 25% of Americans. A further 5 million Australians are considered overweight.

Everybody knows we have to eat less and eat healthy and move more and stay active as we are bombarded with these messages on a daily or weekly basis depending on how many magazines you read or Television shows you watch.
Its obvious we need to focus more on mindset and teaching people how to get motivated and being positive and focussed as this will make it a whole lot easier to get in shape.
learning how to deal with stress and time management or being organised will also help greatly as alot of people lack these skills.
Once you feel good about yourself, your self esteem improves , your energy levels go through the roof and this makes it a whole lot easier to exercise more and reach for heathy food, not fatty food.
