It will get worse not better. More and more young people are sedentary. None of us have to work as hard as we used to, thanks to modern inventions. Television, cell phones, computers, even down to electric can openers, cut down our need to move and use our bodies...Television is one commercial after another, showing all the bad for you foods...Fast food restaurants with cheap fattening food. I'm amazed when out shopping, how few small bodies I see...My oldest sister has been obese for a long time. She now has back issues and knee issues and needs a walker. She will not ever admit the problem is from her weight...I love to bake. Love it but I cannot because I might eat too much of it, and I'm not going into my older years way over weight. As it is I am struggling to lose that 10 extra pounds menopause gave me. Ok, OK, I did eat some of my baked goods too....I worry most about the young people and their futures...
