[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in the 60s and 70s. I am 50. We ate junk food all the time. Twinkies, super sweet cereal, cokes, Kool-aide, ...... We weren't fat because we were active all the time. It really is that simple. [/quote] Yes. The 70s diet was horrible compared to today. But most families had only one car so people biked and walked many places. [b]We spent all day outside playing, running around, climbing trees, swimming.[/b] Most people did not have AC so inside was HOT over the summer. And lost of adults smoked in addition to being more active.[/quote] This. I was a nerdy, bookworm-type but even I was outside playing all the time. I climbed up 20 feet into trees, played kickball in the neighborhood, rode my bike everywhere. My kids just don't do anything like that. [/quote]
