It's not just children who are severely affected: The number of overweight people in Austria is on the rise. At the beginning of the year, just over half of all adults in the country were overweight. Poor diet and lack of exercise are the main causes. This situation brings with it both health and social disadvantages. What can be done about it? 

What measures (nutritional training, exercise programs, sugar tax, etc.) do you think would be effective in tackling this problem? How important is a healthy diet and regular exercise to you personally? What experiences have you had when it comes to obesity? Let us know your thoughts on this!
