[quote=Anonymous]There were more opportunities to be active back then. As a society, we’ve just become lazier and therefore fatter. You can spend the entire day not moving by having all your basic needs delivered to your house. You can sit vapidly in front of your phone, computer or tv all day long. Back in the 70s and 80s even if you had cable (in the late 80s) there were limits on programming. At some point you had to get up and find something else to do. You had to walk to get places. Kids spent more time outside being active. As someone else said, you didn’t hire out for your basic housework like mowing the lawn, washing your car, etc. Simpler times. I agree with the other poster who said stress is contributing to overeating. The amount of stress we’re under nowadays nowhere near compares to the 70s/80s[/quote]
