I am not for letting kids go hungry IF they are hungry and not being fed at home because their parents might not make much money.... As for OBESITY,
let me please express how how tired I am of hearing that word and what defines it....
Definition is mass body index of 30 percent or more based off some ridiculous medical chart that kists heights and weights that are in fantasyland and resemble something HITLER would have approved as he wanted a super race of perect people by HIS standards. Sort of like today here in America....
I do not meet the weight and height acceptable standards by the AMA and NEVER in my life have.....
Yet, somehow, I was always a very good athlete who was stronger than all others in my very large high school (4,000 plus students 9 -12), and FASTER as well. I held the record for fifty yard dash for 15 years.
I played four sports and was 2nd team all state in BIG SCHOOL at Football. I played baseball, basketball, and did Track and Field. I started in basketball and baseball. I was on the varsity as a freshman.
Yet, here I was, a horrible OBESE person, who most idiots think I eat too much, or the wrong things, who was overweight according to their charts, yet I was in far better shape than MOST who were the epitome of those same charts..
I am TIRED of hearing the rhetoric from commercials to people like me who weigh more but don;t look like someone who is grossly obese to "put down the pie". I don't eat pie. Except one time a year, Christmas. Even then it is very limited so I get tired of being labeled by some dipshits who think everyone should be a cookie cutter person....
NOBODY would ever have guessed my weight by looking at me in my high school days, or clear up through my fifties. I retained my muscle and athleticism. I played WORLD CLASS Softball till I was 44 years old and had a lifetime batting average of .722 My position? OBESE ME played CENTER FIELD and we only had 3 outfielders because I could cover more ground and did not need a second one..... The tenth fielder was behind second base.. This stopped the hits up the middle.
SO, not all people are really OBESE... Just because some ama CHART SAYS SO..... There are many athletes like me who weigh far more than those charts say we should for our height, and in my case, I have more bone skeletal thickness and size than most people.
Anyway, my point is there are always plenty of exceptions and after awhile we get tired of being lumped into some category that has become a very offensive and derogatory term...
So, let's not starve the kids.. Surely there is a way to provide some food for them while the pay raise gets worked out...
