pot belly and obese in kenya has become a lifestyle .people do not care about there health.it becomes so bad when you see a kid age 5 years old looking like a grown up obese with big belly and you have so many ?????is it right.watch your lifestyle people.

Kenyans are so eager to embrace all things western!! Including their crappy, 'empty calories' food. Trust me the next phase to be followed will be the size zero rage in europe where kids as young as 7 are not eating to look like 'models' read: "looking like somalia refugees during a bad drought"

So now we wait for deaths & suicides due to anorexia nervosa!! As that is the next step. What a shame. To think of all the nutritious and very yummy traditional foods we have! But i have to blame the parents for that. When i look at an obese five year old, i dont think its him or her going out to buy all the ice cream and junk its the parents. For adults, well, i dont know what to say. And funny thing is in Kenya unlike the west the 'green' foods are much much cheaper. So why spend so much money to make yourself unhealthy?

Just because someone has a pot belly doesn't necessarily mean they are unhealthy....

reminds me of the 1st time i heard Wakanena*, was in a matatu that morning, almost chocked out of laughter..i bet the other 13 passengers thought i had lost it!!!

cary..
I remember sometimes you wanted to ' shed some pounds'. You managed..

Sometimes big is great.

an indirect relatiosnhip between the pot & the 'rumour'
yaani, the bigger one is the smaller the other.
If vice versa is true ogopa maasai na wahlalos.
