Pretty much. I’m not sure I totally buy into that it’s much of an increase though. Or people would be dropping like flies.
I think the bigger issues is just being generally overweight. The percentage of overweight people is crazy, regardless of their jobs.
I’m 55 and not to be an old man and say “in the old days”, but in the old days, when I was growing up. I knew ONE overweight person. Yeah, just one. It just wasn’t common. Look at pics from the 1970’s, and you just won’t see a whole lot of overweight people.
Now? Everywhere I look. I’m sure more office workers have added to that, but that doesn’t account for everyone.
I work in an elementary school. And I was sitting at lunch just looking around and thinking about it. Teachers are actually pretty active. Lots of walking around the classroom. Very little sit down time in an elementary school.
Me and two others are fit. Rest are all overweight. How did this happen?!
Ok, rant over. Just got me to thinking. :)

I want to do this so bad. I really just need to take the jump and start doing it rather than researching it.
