It's true. I saw it in the paper the other day- Australia is actually much more obese than Australian experts thought. They hadn't bothered updating their statistics since 2006, and when they polled the population again, they had a "Bloody hell, mate" moment.

Oh, because its in the paper it must be true! :p
i know of the report. i spend all day reading newspapers. but statistical analysis has its weakness, and though I would certainly place us up high on the obesity scale, I doubt that we're worse than the nation that coined fast food. |
