More Technology, Less Activity

As you probably know, excess weight has become a major health concern, especially over the past few decades. One of the reasons is that our day-to-day lives are much less active than our grandparents', so we burn fewer calories.

Instead of the physically active tasks of farming and manufacturing, many of today's jobs keep us at our desks all day, and we're encouraged to take advantage of labor-saving devices. While nobody expects you to give up your modern conveniences, you'll need to find ways to offset the decreases in activity they create.
