I strongly suspect television to be involved. Time watching TV = time not studying.

Yeah. Sad, because Gary Taubes' article nails it on the physics (the science of actually measuring by physically burning calories) to physiology (metabolic cycle) of diet. The perspective that the human body is a calorimeter is simplistic at best if not down right ignorant.

Tragically, that is what got us the government food pyramid and the consequent epidemic of metabolic syndrome.
