I'm sure you have always been a good runner.
You could probably outrun most of the other girls at school, and even some of the boys.
The kids who are having obesity problems are not the natural athletes,
they are the ones who get sent to play soccer and spend more time on the bench than playing.
They are reviled by the coach for "not trying hard enough", no matter how hard they try.
They come out of school associating exercise with failure and humiliation.
THAT is what is causing obesity.
