[speaker001:] why are there still so many people overweight despite the current fitness craze?
[speaker002:] well, there are certain factors that effect people's size and weight.
[speaker001:] what are they?
[speaker002:] one study said that low-income groups have a higher percentage of over-weight people than higher income families.
[speaker001:] why?
[speaker002:] the survey said that the low, income groups eat more junk food on a daily basis.
[speaker001:] that makes sense. Probably less time to make dinner and the junk food is cheaper.
[speaker002:] and junk food contains lots of fat and oil. There is one final reason why so many people are fat.
[speaker001:] what's that?
[speaker002:] nobody exercises anymore-not even kids! The average american home has the TV on for 6 hours a day!
[speaker001:] wow! No wonder people are so fat. Say, Carl, looks like you could be doing a bit more exercising.
[speaker002:] yeah, I guess so.
[speaker001:] you should consider eating healthier food and getting some more exercise.
[speaker002:] hey, I started a diet and lost 10 pounds.
[speaker001:] so what happened?
[speaker002:] well, I quit and gained it back plus 5 pounds.
[speaker001:] you should have kept trying.
