Nope, simply observation over time, knowing from labor statistics the
kinds of jobs we have now compared to 30 or 40 years ago. We have
fewer
farm, manufacturing, heavy labor, etc., jobs and more desk jobs,
service
jobs, etc. Also, I've yet to see any evidence that humans have evolved
genetically in a dramatic way in such a short period of time.

My observations over time...
1. IF YOU EAT MORE THAN YOU BURN....
YOU WEAR IT.
2. Exercise is great for cardiovascular improvement,
but one can easily eat more than can be exercised away.
3. My doctor sez....
Put whatever you desire on your plate,
then slide half of it off and you will lose weight.
Barnyard BOb -
My doctor said that whatever part of the body gets used the most gets
the
biggest. If you sit at a computer all day, your butt gets big.
Do your eyes get bit also? :-)

40 years ago the captain of my ship hit on a solution to the expanding
waistlines of some of the crew.
He ordered the hatches to the mess decks dogged and locked leaving only the
18" diameter scuttle holes. If you could skinny through the holes, you
could eat. If not, you could report to the ships doctor for a special diet
and exercise. Of course, you could also starve.
One of my Chief Petty Officers was heard to say after consulting a chart of
height vs. desired weight, "I am NOT too heavy, I'm just 6 inches too
short - it's height discrimination."
