Where we were born and raised often determines what we eat and how we feel about fitness. In America our busy lifestyles coupled with unhealthy fast food restaurants adds up to a lot of overweight people. How is diet and fitness viewed in other countries? Can exercise make us crave healthier foods? Is diet and fitness related to psychological health, i.e., depression or happiness?

Amy, Esther, Arman, Layla, & Dave voice opinions and feelings that should not be considered politically correct. Japan, Iran, Armenia, Korea, & America are represented in this forum.
