And, I'm not one of those people who consider every overweight person lost, or a hypocrite, lol.
And, I also realize that in America, it's extremely difficult to maintain a balanced and nutritious diet - it's disheartening sometimes to try to shop for healthy things in the local supermarket, even the so called healthy products contain massive amounts of sugar, sodium, artificial preservatives, etc.
Couple that with the largely sedentary lifestyle of most Americans, and it's rare to find people that are perfectly healthy.
But, I do think that maybe we've done folks a small disservice by not stressing the importance of physical health in the grand scheme of "living life, and that more abundantly".
