Why were they so slim in the sixties?

A report by the UK Department of Health compares lifestyles and diet in the sixties with the present day, and gives clear indications to why so many more people are overweight now. It is pretty obvious stuff, I suspect, to most of us, but it helps to see it in black and white, confirmed by research.

Sounds pretty much like my childhood too, though we did a lot of reading, due to the great British weather! Lol! TV in the UK didn't start until 16.00 in those days! It went off around midnight too!
