I don't claim to know how we all began. I do believe in evolution to an extent. Not because I'm a big fan of Darwin, but because every picture I've ever seen of cavemen doesn't look like anyone I know. Okay, maybe a couple of guys I dated in high school, but other than that we all look different now. Just for the record, I personally think the Geico caveman is pretty hot. But anyways.
What I do believe in is that our bodies need to evolve. It is my personal belief that our bodies are designed to exist on a diet high in fruits and berries and red meat. Also our bodies are designed to walk all day tracking wooly mammoths. So I have come upon a new theory - if we could just figure out a way to make our bodies understand that we can now drive to get where we are going. If we could make our metabolism understand that we now have a more varied diet that no longer includes brontosaurus burgers.
My point is, I think we as a nation are fat because our bodies just don't understand all the yummy foods that are out there. I'm not saying that you shouldn't eat healthy, but why everytime do I even consider eating a piece of cheesecake my jeans get tighter? I think our bodies are expecting way too much exercise and not enough food. It's not like I have to beat on a piece of flint all day to get a fire, I just pick up my bic and give it a flick nowadays.
Now before you discount me, just give it a thought. I think I'm onto something here, what do you think?
