The obesity rate has climbed to nearly 38 percent of adults, up from 32 percent about a decade earlier.
Obesity is still rising among American adults, despite more than a decade of public-awareness campaigns and other efforts to get people to watch their weight, and women have now overtaken men in the obese category, new government research shows

It's may not be the ceiling but breaking through the glass floor is still a pretty good accomplishment...

Could it maybe have anything to do with eating a bunch of crap and sitting on your arse?? Possibly?
Also....I would imagine there are more landwhale women because of the increase in "accepting all body types" campaigns by various media.
Basically we should just start taking a "scare the shite of fatties everywhere" approach and start showing graphic ads of what really happens to your body when you are that obese. Cause telling people over and over the health risks of being a landwhale clearly isn't working.

Maybe people started realizing that saying you are 120 and showing up weighing 200 doesn't work?

Cause healthy food is 10x more expensive than junk food and most fat people are poor?

We are fat as a country, no doubt. But I can't believe we are still using a formula from the MID 19th fricking Century to define it. Its a shitty shitty formula.

Still doesn't change the fact that it is one of the biggest health problems facing our country today and is just gonna continue to get worse.
You hate your taxpayer dollars going to those that don't deserve it(I know you do terd)......just think of all the medicaid money going to pay for health issues related to obesity.

It doesn't help any that obesity has been labeled as a disability and people can get disability benefits from it.
Get fat, get paid.
