    Why do you think people sometimes consider health and wellbeing a less-important priority?

    With the obesity crisis, it is hardly a stretch to say people put several things before health and fitness. Why do you think this is?

    I think most of us would love to put these things first.  I think health and wellbeing take money, time, and energy, which many of us seem to unfortunately not have anymore!  We run ourselves crazy, and time seems to fly by - it's hard to keep up.

    WE don't have that much good options to keep our self satisfied with what we have to do.

    well many believe that money buys both so they spend less time caring about their health and wellbeing and spend more time chasing money.....in the case of obesity...fast food is already cooked and saves the time of cooking.besides it taste good....more time to chase money
