Tired of high fuel prices?  Lose weight!

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention the average American 20-74 yr old male weighs 194.7 lbs – an increase of 28.4 lbs since 1960.  The average 20-74 yr old woman has packed on an extra 24.5 lbs since 1960.

Since it takes more energy to move a heavier object our growing waistlines require an additional one billion gallons of gasoline be consumed to move us from point A to point B.  At an average of $3.80/gallon that’s $3.8 billion wasted each year.
