I realize 1700 may be somewhat low, and I was slowly losing weight. It may be low however, many people are consuming too much the obesity rates prove that. They don't prove that people can't afford to eat healthy. They prove people are consuming more than burning. I'm for taxing the bad instead of subsidizing the good however.. But we can't ignore the personal responsibility aspect and these studies while useful also give ammunition to the excuse makers and excuse making is a tremendous impediment to solving important social problems.
