obesity and fast food

bornraf @bornraf (228) • United States 23 Apr 07

Do you think that fast food may be responsible for obesity problems in people? I remember 15 years a go there were no really obese people in my native country (Venezuela). However, after fast food chains arrive (no I am not...

saroya I believe that fast food is one of the causes of obesity. It is for the most part non-nutritional, addictive and certainly contributes to heart disease and high blood pressure. It is high and sugar and salt as well as greasy. Too bad that much of it is...

Do you sneak snacks into the theater?

blogyourself @blogyourself (1577) • United States 9 Jan 07

Just curious how many people pay the high prices for snack food at the movie theater and how many of you sneak in your own food. I have gone as far to buy a special big purse that we use to sneak things in. In the end I pay less...

saroya Heck yeah! Wouldn't be the movies if I didn't go to the dollar store and get all the snacks I want and go in. I am not the elite going to the theatre. I always go to the $2 shows because $9 is out of the question.

The News Depresses Me

blogyourself @blogyourself (1577) • United States 9 Jan 07

I honestly don't watch the news unless it just ends up on that channel when I'm not paying attention. There is rarely any happy news or if it is happy the bad news kind of over shadows it. I don't understand why people want to...

saroya The news is depressing because human nature thrives on the negative of our being bad. We like to hear the bad. It can energize some people. The media creates a flurry of do's and don'ts for the small-minded. Turn it off if it gets to be too much.

saroya Today. File today. Sixty days those kids could have starved to death and that is a true fact. Let him have it. If you cannot afford a lawyer call your bar association and they will refer you to one who does pro bono. Good Luck.

Why do Designers of BBW Clothing Think we are Just Bigger?

ElusiveButterfly @ElusiveButterfly (45941) • United States 30 Dec 06

It seems that designers of BBW clothing fail to realize that BBW's are not just a bigger model of smaller sizes. Our body shapes are different as well. Our bodies are shaped differently too. If you design a shirt that is one...

saroya It is funny that women have this problem and men do not. A 42 is a 42 all over the world and they can order clothing without many problems. I almost never order clothes online, because I feel it will be a nightmare.

Do you go to Church?

sunshinecup @sunshinecup (7871) 3 Jan 07

Myself, no. I stopped years ago after several attempts at various ones. I find a church adds politics to religion and further distracts from one’s own relationship with God. I have found my connection with God as strengthen...

saroya Currently I do not attend church. I feel isolated and ostracized there, and made to not feel welcome. I had some bad experiences there and it is not worth talking about. But I pray and work everyday for the Lord. I hope and pray that this is sufficient.

saroya This is a bold question,as people will not admit that they hate anyone. But hate exists. It exists enough to allow a Darfur to exist, AIDS to exist, and executions by hanging to exist. Will people admit it? NO.
