Weight of the Nation

Goddesses, did you have an opportunity to view the HBO Documentary Weight of a Nation?? If you need some motivation to get in shape and eat healthier then this video is a must! The documentary talked about the effect that the U.S.'s Food Toxic environment is having on children. They stated that 1 in 3 children born after the year 2000 will develop diabetes....Scary!! They also highlighted the fact that OUR community is disproportionately by the Obesity Crisis. You already know that our communities have a lack physical spaces for exercise, affordable healthy food options, and an overabundance of fast food outlets. We have a lot of work to do to get our families healthy.

You can find the videos at   http://theweightofthenation.hbo.com/films.
