If you remember back just twenty years ago our idea of a “fat” kid was a kid who today we would simply say is a bit heavy. The standards and even semantics of being a fatass have changed drastically. It is, in my view, at least as much about changing social standards as it is nutrition. This is the position I wish to examine from an athletic angle. I would like to look less at what we are eating and more at what we are doing or failing to do.

I also want to bounce this off of a trained geneticist and nutritionist who I know very well, and let her have a crack at interpreting all the data I collect and explaining her take at both a high and low resolution. I’ll get more into the weeds as time goes on… that is best left to the show itself, which I plan to start shooting next week if possible. Hopefully editing will not take too long.
