Health: Thicka Than A Snicka

Did you know that clothing companies are making their fashions bigger to accommodate America’s growing waistline, but they aren’t changing the sizes of the clothes?

You can be a size 14, but if you go to the right store, you’ll be led to believe you’re actually a size 10. Experts say that’s making more people accepting of being overweight and believing that having a little too much meat on their bones is normal.

And as those clothing sizes scale down, food portions are going up. The percentage of adults classified as obese jumped in 23 states in the last year alone. Doctors say feeling normal but actually being overweight may keep you out of the gym because you won’t be motivated to lose the weight.

Now, I love to get down on those pretty wangs as much as the next gal, you can fry 'em, jerk 'em, curry 'em or bake 'em... but know when to say when! You can't fool me. I know my 14 hips are not squeezing in no 10s. If you fall for that, I've got a bridge to sell you!

It’s time to push away from the table and get to movin’ America!
