OVERWEIGHT
The most recent statistical information collected in January 1997 and released by the
Harris Poll shows that about 74% of Americans twenty-five years or older are overweight,
that's three out of every four citizens in our entire country. This is up from 59% just
ten years ago. That's a whopping increase of over 25% in just one decade. In addition, 24%
of adults are above their recommended weight by 20% or more. People at or above the 20%
level are considered by medical experts to be obese. It is becoming more and more
important to pay attention to our weight, and more and more difficult to do so. As our
dietary patterns have changed, so has our waistlines.
CALORIC
BALANCE
Many theories have evolved over the years regarding why we gain weight and have difficulty
losing it. The "calories don't count" is one. Low fat, low carbohydrate, high
protein, food combining, pills of all kinds, special fasts, diet drinks and ideas have
been touted as the answer. Even though each of these concepts offer certain advantages, we
must get back to simple and rational thinking. One thing for sure—we gain weight if
our body assimilates more calories than it burns. And, we lose weight if we burn
more calories than we assimilate. In other words we must maintain caloric balance.
