My physique is best described as the “pregnant toothpick” look: Chris at least carries his weight with some dignity 🙂

In truth, Chris, I wouldn’t call you “fat”. Certainly not in the last five or six years or so- I think you’ve gotten more active and hit a good balance. Your comments about work that keeps you active is well taken. For myself, really, it wouldn’t take much: if I walked a mile or two (20-30 minutes) every day and cut back just a bit on the junk, I’d likely lose a few pounds.

As for hormones in food…I suppose there is some of that, and certainly much of the food we buy today is laced with additives more for convenience than for health. But there is no question in my mind that when I eat a giant bag of ripple chips and creamy dip, it ain’t the additives making me fat 🙂
