Beating Obesity
Ambinder, Marc
The Atlantic Monthly, May 2010, v305, #4, pp72-82
"By 2015, four out of 10 Americans may be obese. Until last year, the author was one of them. The way he lost one-third of his weight isn't for everyone. But unless America stops cheering The Biggest Loser and starts getting serious about preventing obesity, the country risks being overwhelmed by chronic disease and ballooning health costs. Will first lady Michelle Obama's new plan to fight childhood obesity work, or is it just another false start in the country's long and so far unsuccessful war against fat?"
