"Obese people are 25% less likely to have a substance abuse disorder at some time during their lives when compared to people of normal weight."
maybe thats because they already have one?!
honestly. unless the obesity is attributed to some psychiatric medication, a mental disease, or your mom physically forced you to eat to much and kept you in a cage when you were little, I'd have to say that the leading cause of obesity (eating too freakin much) is definitely a substance abuse disorder.
just thought i'd share my ironic statement of the day.
...im doing a powerpoint on obesity at work. its actually really interesting, compared to the amount of crap filing ive been doing. but maybe ill become obese just sitting in this chair staring at a computer screen for 8 hours.
now that would be ironic.
