Re: Why 'French Women Don't Get Fat'
First of, they walk everywhere. Jumping in the car and drive a short distance like we do is not practical a lot of times. Most of everything is within a few or several blocks and there are no parking spaces and if you do find one, you have to pay to park. Secondly, their tv programming is absolutely terrible. It ain't worth watching at all so they don't spend as much time on the couch. Third, they do go to the market more often and buy/cook fresher and not as greasy food. Generally, the food is not loaded with bad stuff like our American food. This is European in general not just French. I was in Europe for 10 days and I sprained my foot from all the walking, it freaking suxks. Our culture is different, one can learn that lady teaching/theory but wouldn't be able to apply much of it here in America. I mean, why would you want to drive half an hour to Wally World and deal with all the insanity several times a week instead of sitting on a nice comfy couch watching all the good stuff we have on TV?
