Bye Bye Obesity

I thought that this article in the New York Times shows about a real breakthrough in the battle against childhood obesity. It is becoming sick these days seeing how many children are overweight in our society. Then, the parents of these children aren’t doing anything to stop it. With this step being taken by the schools, I think that the widespread obesity will disapear.  I hope that Canada will follow suit and the world will become a better place.  When I was in China, I saw very few people who were overweight, and it was extremely rare that saw a person who was obese.  I’m sure times are changing over there and their obesity rate is bound to rise, but maybe we should be examining more closely the food that we are eating.
