Obviously, since that's an average, some gain a lot more than others. And that's what does it, coupled with the fact that people gradually lose muscle mass as they get older. (Less muscle and more fat adds up to a high percentage of body fat.) And this is bad for your health.

The proof is in the statistics: 2/3 of Americans are overweight. And the problem is: Too many days that are counted as, "only one day."
I guess I'm kind of thinking I have enough going on in my life that the very, very last thing on my mind would be anybody's body fat or their muscle mass here on TOTV. Just sayin'
