2009 Resolutions: Useless Fat Facts!

If you've pinched more than an inch while cooking up those New Years resolutions, it's likely we can already figure out all the why's -- especially how those extra chunks got there...no?.

Uh-Hmmm, Face Stuffing comes to mind -- and yes you will look fatter in those jeans --it ain't rocket science --(eat enough bad calories without burning said calories and blubber will stick to your waistline!)...

Trivia buffs with way too much free time might get a kick out of these nuggets of info -- (and I don't mean McDonald's chicken nuggets).

Talking about that -- "Does America look fat in this?" - Mother Jones article.

Here are a few of my top fav Fat Facts:

• 70% of the Obesity Task Force's funding comes from

  the two drug companies that make the popular weight-loss pills Xenical, Meridia, and Reductil.

• Researchers say obese Americans

  contribute disproportionately to global warming by consuming 18% more food and 938 million extra gallons of gas every year.

• The "Diet Fork"

  has dull teeth and an uncomfortable grip that force eaters to "scoop less."

• Gwyneth Paltrow, Madonna, and Christina Aguilera

  wear $250 sneakers by Masai Barefoot Technology, which claims they burn cellulite.
