“A Heavy Burden”

The annual cost of obesity in America has soared to a record $147 billion, double the amount only 10 years ago. Apparently, when obese people are hungry, they will even eat money.

The figures are based on calculations for all medical-related expenses. Heart disease and diabetes account for a high percentage of the health costs, and the rest is from damages from busting through the doorways of the hospital cafeteria.

American doctors are sweating over these statistics, while their patients’ obese bodies are sweaty just from blinking.

American officials are looking for solutions to the problem of sedentary lifestyles. Professors will golf cart over all over campus to meet, or else Skype into these talks.
