Fewer Overweight Americans Trying To Lose Weight, Study Suggests.

reports that the researchers found that the largest “decline in weight loss striving was among black women, the group with the highest rates of obesity in the study.” Study author Dr. Jian Zhang “says he believes the number-one reason for the drop is that so many people struggle to lose weight and keep it off, a process that discourages them.” Meanwhile, “being overweight or obese is also becoming the norm, so people may feel less pressure to lose weight, he says.” http://time.com/4692274/americans-lose-weight-obesity/
