Well, I've know quite a few fat people who said they had to eat something every trhee hours or so.

But ignoring this point, since it seems to vary, the gist of what I'm saying is that by eating food with few nutrients and lots of calories you're more likely to over-eat, be it on a single sitting or over the day. By getting fatter, your metabolism tends to change, which further changes the likelyhood of you actually exercising, which screws you up even more.

So yes, having children exercise is extremely important, but it seems to me nutriotionaly poor foods will make the whole situation harder, as in being harder both not to overeat and to exercise properly, so it's also an important part of the puzzle.

Besides, it's not like health is limited to how fat you are.

So what you're saying is that we have a problem.... :p

Every advanced culture in the world has a large or similar number of obesity and overweightness... Tech helps us be lazy in both eating poor foods and easy access to them, and lack of exercise. 

It's clear that we need to build exercise robot suits.  Because... that would be cool.  And I know a few overweight people who would love to jump in one of those.

Well, yeah we do have a problem :P

And I'm not sure how a robotic exercise suit would help.

But really, all I was trying to say is that to me it seems pretty obvious that it's alot easier to eat three ounces of Ruffles when you're not even hungry than it is to eat six hard boiled eggs. Yet both have a similar amount of calories.
