I can well believe it, as a recent article in a medical journal for the North Wales regions of Gwynedd, Conwy and Denbigshire, highlights the acute obesity problem in school children under the age of seven.
I thought the South Wales valley's were amongst the most deprived and anti exercise regions in Wales, but according to very reliable data, the regions of North Wales have some of the most overweight youngsters in the Uk.
We all know there is an obesity epidemic in the very young age groups in Britain, but to have it spelt out to you by current medical staff in North Wales was a real eye opener.
