And I refer to 'lazy' with regard to not 'owning' our choices - not in conjunction with obesity. Sorry if that wasn't clear.
From a neopagan perspective, I don't feel that I am honouring myself if I am giving myself anything less than a healthy, active lifestyle.
And I know that there are plenty of people who are overweight, who do have healthy active lifestyles, but I have seen an abundance of pagans (no pun intended) who do not take active ownership of their personal choices when it comes to diet and lifestyle. Again, speaking in the most general terms, most pagans paths tend to have a basis in icnreasing personal awareness and responsbility, so I find this a strange trend.
