its so unfair!

this whole issue of water, hydration, dieting, body image, weight loss...basically of getting ourselves back into a good weight range.
at the same time, people the world over are dying from lack of food and water. we're stuck in our own little bubble, guys....at least, i am.
we're so lucky that we even have the choice of water, milk, pop, juice, coffee and tea...ya know?
i wish everyone could truly be equal.

I couldn't agree more! We're so lucky to be in the position we're in.....not having to worry about where our next meal is going to come from. Kinda makes us all look a little selfish at times.

Re: its so unfair!

Imagine if all that extra money each overweight person spends on food they don't need went towards feeding those in need.

I can't say it would ever happen though. Even if we weren't wasting our money on junk food, we'd put it towards something else we don't need. We've been raised in a very selfish society, always wanting more than we have.
