Biggest shocker of the week: If America's obesity trend continues at the rate it's going, obesity rates will be above 44 percent by 2030 in all 50 states. Half of our population, chubby. So big they're "obese!"
OK, so I'm guessing you're not really surprised. Heck, I thought that statistic was sort of low. We live in an economy where there are entire fairs around fatty foods, we actually have to BAN larger-than-life sodas, and something called the Funnel Bacakonator exists.
Thus, my friends, I present you with WHY America is heading toward 50 percent obese. Starting with how BIG they make clothes these days. I'm lookin' at you, XXXL.
What do you think some of American's worst habits are?

obviously your a bully and racist against chubby people. You hate people who do not look like you want them to.
The BMI measure all fat on the body. It i unnatural to have no fat at all on your body and very unhealthy a well.
Your a rude sarcastic sick Peron who feed stereotype and love to hurt other for no other reason but to give yourself a chuckle.
Your feeding into the hatred for chubby people who in a whole get abused and treated a less than. Those who are know how hard it i to walk outside every day and not worry at least 1 time if you will get the look today or not.
Your feeding into hatred and you need to be ashamed of yourself.
I jut love how you assume all chubby people eat bad and pig out on bad fast food only. Forgetting their are many reasons someone i overweight and food i usually not the first reason to have caused it.
educate first pick on never.
Your just a BULLY.
YOUR A BULLY.
Talk about lazy yoga? This article is in an extreme in lazy, judgmental, and ignorant discussion. What? Fat people shouldn't be allowed clothing? Oops, dear God, nope if you exceed a *gasp* XL we're going to shame you into losing weight by running about naked. As a fat person I can already tell you finding clothing is difficult enough for us. Average sized people can expect to go into an find many options to cover themselves with, I may not even be able to find something in an entire mall. If lost my luggage while traveling I would be screwed, like hopelessly screwed but I'm sure the people that agree with this article would be the first ones to judge whatever ridiculously thing I managed to find to cover myself with while out in public.
Just because these extreme foods exist doesn't mean fat people regularly consume them. If fact,t the mostly correlation for being fat? Being a dieter.
anyone who studies nutrition and fitness knows that bmi is a waste of time to just base it off. they now use terms like overfat and use waist to hip ratios. but just generating ur bmi and not actually being assessed is where people go wrong. obesity is obvious and lean muscle mass is too.
Some people are ugly on the outside but you, by dear, are ugly on the inside.
according to bmi calculators im obese but i certainly dont look like it (but im not exactly at a healthy weight either)... i actually just look a little overweight... still wanna lose the extra weight though, for me.
