Jim Cramer has a video on TheStreet.com this morning discussing obesity stock plays.  With 7 million Americans more than 100 pounds overweight and $33 Billion is spent on healthcare per year on obesity alone.  This is a great trend for investors as far as Cramer notes:  As the market comes down, that is your opportunity.

NutriSystem (NTRI) is one that was a great pick in the $40′s and has a great mome
ntum that you want to be in.  On Herbalife (HLF) is that "Breakout Stocks" is calling for a gain; Cramer doesn’t like it because of the multi-level marketing, but it is cheap and may have some value.  Life Time Fitness (LTM) is a great one with the nicest facilities and they are shrewd operators and well run; Lifetime is the best for Cramer because of great gross margins and lower cost per customer; here is what he has said before on it.
