			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[ Note: This article was written by fitness and nutrition author Jon Benson. I have his permission to share it with you. ]</p>
<p>Ever heard the phrase, &#8220;Fat-n-Happy?&#8221;&#8230; </p>
<p>Of course you have. We used to refer to obese guys as a &#8220;jolly fat-man&#8221;&#8230; or perhaps someone who is overweight as &#8220;fat-n-happy&#8221;.</p>
<p>Is it true? Can (gasp) being overweight actually make you happy?</p>
<p>Rather than giving you my opinion on the matter, I take a look at three national studies on this page.</p>
<p>The presentation is only 5 minutes long&#8230; and I reveal the number one case for alarm in the United States and Canada.</p>
<p>Read that again:  The Number 1 Cause For Alarm.  </p>
<p>And I&#8217;m NOT an alarmist&#8230; I&#8217;m a rationalist. But stats like these do not lie.</p>
<p>They cannot lie.</p>
<p>And this deals with our children.</p>
<p>Please&#8230; go see:</p>
<p>click.here&#8212;>  <a href="http://www.fitover40.com/aff/ecofit/fat-and-happy" onclick="window.open('http://www.fitover40.com/aff/ecofit/fat-and-happy');return false;">Fat-n-Happy Study</a></p>
<p>P.S.  I can tell you from my own first-hand experience, which I document in &#8220;Fit Over 40&#8243;, that my personal 10-year-journey through the muck of obesity was ANYTHING but happy.</p>
<p>I was depressed, to the point of suicide at times (thankfully I never went that far.) I was socially hidden. I wore &#8220;fat-clothes&#8221; all the time. The few times I HAD to wear jeans or dress pants I rushed home to change into sweats because they were just too damn uncomfortable to tolerate.</p>
<p>Bottom line:  I was &#8220;fat-n-miserable&#8221;. </p>
<p>I think most people who are overweight or obese feel more despair, sadness, or perhaps just really frustrated than &#8220;happy&#8221;. Of course you can be happy and be any size, color, shape, etc. But I&#8217;ll tell you from my experience that I am MUCH happier now that I&#8217;m fit and trim.</p>
<p>Part of that is just because I feel better. The other part is how the brain functions. When you&#8217;re more active, you release more &#8220;feel-good&#8221; hormones&#8230; and these are powerful anti-blues hormones&#8230; they really make you feel like a champ. At least that&#8217;s been my experience.</p>
<p>But go watch the 5-min video and see what you think&#8230;</p>
