Hereīs another article, regarding US military overweight problems:

http://www.keepmedia.com/ShowItemDetails.do?itemID=291743&extID=10032&oliID =213

"The IOM report underscores why the military is worried: Fully 60 percent of the men and 40 percent of the women in the Army have a body mass index (BMI) at or above 25, making them officially overweight according to government standards. So do 69 percent of Navy men and 46 percent of Navy women."

Itīs not just a problem, itīs a HUGE problem!


No wonder they say they are loosing the battle of the "bulge"!!
