Miss South Carolina lost 110 pounds prior to her title. What a great story that so many other Americans should pay attention to. She worked her butt off (figuratively and literally) and is reaping the rewards.
So those 2/3 of you Americans who are over weight (and especially the 1/3 of you who are obese), get out there. Move more and eat less. Keep it up until you’re over the hump and you find yourself sticking to it. Love it and suck it up when someone asks you if you’ve lost weight or tells you how good you look. Let that fuel you even more. Burn it! Let it rub off on those around you. Spread the disease! Let’s put an end to each generation weighing more than the last!
