CNN Middle East Report on Obesity in Kuwait

Kuwait is one of the easiest places in the world to be inactive and eat delicious food night and day.  With the scorching heat that can reach over 140 degrees, thousands of fabulous restaurants that deliver to your door 24/7 and cheap foreign labor to cater to every whim or need who wouldn't struggle with trying to eat healthy?

The battle of the bulge is one of the biggest you can face in this tiny, oil rich country.  Just like America, Kuwait has become one of the fattest countries in the world.  With every new restaurant brand, fast food chain brought to Kuwait there are new gym openings, awareness campaigns, diabetes centers and proud Kuwaitis who are trying to fight this crippling epidemic.
