Hmmm, I used to fidgit a lot, but now I just snack on carrots-n-nuts to distract me. A bit counter productive, but hey, at least it isnt chips!

I’m a confirmed fat bastard, and I agree that any opportunity to sit is a good opportunity, and it means less chance of spilling my beer!

Terry, I don’t think they say that people who have problems with obesity do it consciously. They mean that some people are predisposed to being more active than others, and it shows itself in weight loss/gain.

I’m pretty sure I don’t have a brain disorder, I just find it hard to sit completely still.

Wonderful, just give people gene therapy so that they contract brain disorders and they will lose weight.

I really do not like the second part of the quote you posted. I think the fact that people are overweight determines how quickly they want to sit down, not that they are lazy and want to sit down to conserve calories so they can gain weight.
