Ever wonder who carries a concealed camera waist high at walmart?

Why only walmart?

Many of the same creatures exist at any large retailer.
Or the finest sections of Michigan Avenue, Chicago.

Who would like to discredit walmart?
K-mart?
How about the ma&pa store down the street?

Would you believe the paid union people who hate walmart?

I don't judge morbidly obese persons for the simple reason I am not privy to their health records. My dads side of the family had two sizes overweight or skinny and very few were in between those extremes except for my dad who maintained a normal weight all his life. To get a realistic idea about their weight a person needs to look at family pictures before 1945 and see how big family member were including ones such as farmers and ones who did labor.

My great uncles My grand dads brothers were quite large they were blacksmiths and farmers. Granddad was skinny as a rail same dad same mother. IOW if it were simply diet they would have worked off their weight.

I have an aunt {dads sister} who could sit at a table and eat all she wanted and was always underweight even by old standards. Her sisters who ate far less and were just as active raising kids keeping house etc had major weight issues. But when both were young and skinnier both had health issues. All lived into their 70's & 80's and as such were not trying to diet rather they bodies metabolism obviously changed and burned the fat off.

My moms two sisters one was overweight and was always active. The other sister was so skinny and small frame a gust of wind could knock her down. In her later years she lived on a sandwich a day split in half for two meals. She lived into her 90's.

My dads brother were both overweight and both were active into their mid 70's. One of them was a Commander in the Navy retiring in about 1970. I saw his picture at a change of command ceremony. All of my dads overweight siblings lost their weight as they approached 70 years old as if a switch had been thrown. Even dad got skinnier.

Am I overweight? Yeap according to the so called new standards charts and due to the loss of about 3" of height I'm nearly 100 pounds over to a weight I haven't seen since I was about 14 years old and I was not a fat teenager. Realistically for my build I'm only 45 lbs over and I know it. I didn't weight the new standards even when I left Boot Camp in 1976. On active duty in 1980 I was 23 years old 5'10" and weighed 205 and was in top shape. That approaches morbid obese by today's charts. Everything has changed in the past couple of years as to standards including Blood Sugar level standards which place many now borderline Diabetics who simply are not. 30 years ago the doctor would have said the now borderline sugar levels were fine and healthy. Now it's panic mode thanks to new goobermunt standards set by Obamites.

A persons health has a lot to do with determining their weight rather than the more believed and accepted a persons weight determines their health. The inability to exercise and work off calories has a lot to do with many morbidly obese persons weight. At 34 I could hike 20 miles a day easily. That was at just 30 pounds less than I weigh now. Now on my Orthro doctors orders I must walk on flat unpaved areas for exercise due to arthritis and feet issues. I was born club footed and became flat footed in my mid 30's. I have to wear corrective insoles except inside the house. Also due to life long balance issues I use a cane now. I'm only 57.

Now granted some people are gluttons and I used to know a family of such. Their meal was a pizza or two and I mean a large one a person and each one got an entire cake. Yea they were greatly overweight and did it too themselves. Just because a person is obese though doesn't mean they are over eaters or lazy.
