Evidently, overweight kids are holding more than Twinkies and Cheetos in their chubby paws — they also hold the fate of the world! “Children…are…heavier now than they were even 10 years ago,” says Naomi Neufield, Director of KidShape, a nonprofit weight-loss program in Los Angeles, quoted in “Too Heavy, Too Young,” an article in Time magazine (Jan. 21, 2002). “We can’t even imagine the medical costs we will be seeing in the future. It feels like Armageddon.”
