Enough Already!

I just saw yet another commerical for weight loss pills. From what I've just heard on the news, Americans are getting fatter as a result of this recession. Really? I guess people are heading straight for the comfort foods instead of the healthy stuff we should be eating. Given that we had kolaches for breakfast (yum!) I can relate. But, are people really going to be spending money on pills to help them lose weight right now? I guess that's why they are advertising so much.
