From Paul Watson:
Sure, you can combine health and happiness but it is not done by many.

You can combine overweight and happiness too, but not by many. In fact, I'd be willing to bet *most* overweight people either A: are unhappy or B: pretending to be happy.

From Paul Watson:
And yes there are many unhappy, overweight people. Some of that lot are unhappy because they are made to feel ugly thanks to the media and money-making diet and body-image nazis.

So, all health issues aside, would you marry an obese chick and be *completely* content with her weight? If not, then this is hypocritical.

From Paul Watson:
I guess, as usual, moderation is key.

That's with everything. You can overdo exercise and cause problems (maybe the case with your uncle - who knows) or you can overdo laziness and cause problems.

From Paul Watson:
And that brocolli arguement is just terrible Jeremy! People can get used to eating maggots and horse manure too you know.

Why? What makes an eating experience less enjoyable besides taste? If you talking about people, that's not the food's fault.
