>The CDC polled 100,000 adult Americans in 2015 and used that data to determine that about 30.4% of adults aged 20 and older are obese, meaning they have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or greater. In other words, more than 97 million adult Americans are grossly overweight. >That figure is up only marginally from 29.9% in 2014, but it marks the continuation of an ongoing trend. Since 1997 the number of obese Americans has only dropped one time, between 2002 and 2003, before promptly climbing again the following year. >Also discouraging (unless you’re a pharmaceutical company) is the CDC’s finding that among Americans 18 and older, 9.5% had diabetes in 2015 compared to 9.1% in the prior year’s study. bgr.com/2016/05/26/obesity-statistics-2016-americans-overweight-cdc/
Mexico is just as obese as us. There must be something about the Western Hemisphere.

How do we make America fit again?

chubby is obese at this point. 30 BMI isn't that hard to achieve if you have muscle and are bit overweight

Literally no way unless you outlaw many unhealthy things and force Americans to exercise - which would go against our nature.

break that down by race.
blacks are 3 times as likely to be obese than whites, and black women are the most obese demographic.
Latinos are also fatter and more likely fatter than whites

It's related to a "poor" culture and food being easy to get (which may be related to oil). Africans wold be the fattest fucks if they had food. Most of obese in America are of african descent, arabic countries were poor af a while ago, now they have plenty of resources.
Hudson Green
I wonder if this relates to immigration trends at all. Compared to whites asian Americans are thinner, but blacks and Latinos pull the average upwards. Could immigration trends from Mexico be pushing the average upwards? Obviously there's a lot of obese white trash too, but looking at statistics it only makes sense that we'd start to get fatter on the whole as more Mexicans come

If someone wants to be a lazy fuck and eat themselves to death, then by all means do it. But they should be disqualified for all government aid/assistance for choosing to be a big fat fuck.

5'6" manlet here. Was always physically active and an athlete in high school and had a BMI of 29 even though I was in good shape. It was higher than my friend who was 6'8" 180 (same weight as me) who had a BMI of like 21. The whole BMI thing is super fucked.

Recent national data show that 82.0 percent of Black women and 77.2 percent of Hispanic women are overweight or obese compared to 63.2 percent of White women (Ogden et al., 2014). In addition, over half of Black women are obese (versus 37.1 percent of Black men and 32.8 percent of White women) (Ogden et al., 2014).

people need to be reeducated about how many calories are in food, especially fast food
drinking calories really adds up fast especially things like soda and starbucks

BREAKING NEWS!
We really needed a study for this haha
Wow im so glad we have a study that confirms it finally!!!!
Lincoln Morgan
The most obese group are niggers.
So why is this depiction a white person?
Oliver Russell
Whites are actually one of the thinnest groups in the US. Black and Latino obesity rates, if I recall correctly, are well above 40% each (over 80% of all black women are at least overweight) while white Americans have an obesity rate below 30%. Some anecdotal evidence of mine is that I hail from south Texas, easily over 90% Mexican/Hispanic. Pretty much every single adult is seriously overweight and many are obese. I'm currently in vacation in Ohio and there are far more skinny adults here than I have ever seen in south Texas. Of course the fat motherfuckers here are waaaaaay larger than the short chubby beaners I live with but there are still more skinny white fucks.
Cameron Lewis
Okay, where's the "by race" part?
Jason Foster
BMI literally is the most broken system for measuring weight. The main problem is that it doesn't take into account how some people are born with just larger frames (making them weight more), and it doesn't account that muscle could be making up the weight.
Thus, to be considered "normal weight", you have to be a fucking twig or a woman.
For example, I'm 6'3", 208 lbs, look skinny, I work out but I'm not jacked or anything, and my BMI is 26.0 so I'm considered overweight. My dad isn't fat, he's built like a brick shit house cause he has just always worked out, he's about 6'1", 230 lbs which pegs him at obese.
Not saying that a lot of Americans aren't absolutely fat pieces of shit, but a decent percentage of those people are likely perfectly healthy and are just built bigger than others.
Bentley Perez
It's because of food deserts, isn't it? How easy is it for you in south Texas to go to a shop and buy fresh fruit and vegetables? How expensive is it? This is very much an issue of people not being able to afford to eat non-junk food.
Mason Lee
BMI is a joke unless it's children though. A WWE 'wrestler' isn't as unhealthy as picrel but they'll be put in the same category
Jace Powell

Eli Hughes
>This is very much an issue of people not being able to afford to eat non-junk food.
That's a meme fat people say. You can buy healthy food options that last longer for the same price. The only exception is if you're literally eating nothing but dollar menu for every meal but if you're that poor you shouldn't be worrying about your health and weight.
Ryan Long
The city I hail from has one of the cheapest costs of living in the entire nation. Motherfuckin fruits stands everywhere along with non stop Mexican restaurants, unbelievably cheap food items from Mexico and Mexican grandmothers cooking feasts for their families constantly. Cheap prices on all food items along with incredible Mexican cooking here are what push obesity rates up and up and up. The McAllen area has one of the highest rates of obesity in the nation (well over 40%) along with one of the highest levels of obesity.
Tyler Sanchez
>it's everyone else's fault >i'm not holding myself back
Bullshit, bmi is a good indicator unless you're swole as fuck, and if I were to guess I'd say that 0,1-1% of murricans are swole. In fact I'd even say that the bmi is way too generous. It was made in a time when people were a lot more physical active and had more muscle mass. Today they should probably probably put the limit for a healthy weight at bmi 23, probably lower for men since women never had much muscle mass anyway.
Alexander Rivera
people who are overweight according to their bmi are overweight according to bodyfat as well 97% of the time
Every man that gets fat just raises my value even more. Feels good to be 6'3 185
Thomas Lopez
Matter of time before people start hunting Americans as large game.
Adam Ross
Fat people can eat themselves to death. Idc. Makes my life easier. Basically if you have a good job, not Manlet, not socially retarded, and not obese, it's raining pussy out here.
Too bad I just described things 99% of pol don't have lmao. Gg fat asses
Jacob Fisher
The parents of obese kids should be charged with child abuse. If you feed your kid too little and they get sick you'll get in trouble, so why shouldn't you get in trouble if you feed your kid too much?
Henry Myers
Therein lies the problem as well. I'd say more men workout to become fit at the same time BMI says they are overweight, whereas women tend to just be fat.
Nolan Martin
Why do you think cops shoot so many black people?
Michael Ortiz
Sure there are anomalies/outliers, but not enough to skew the results to a level that is not dramatic
America doesn't have a problem of 225+ lbs, oiled-up muscle daddies sadly.

Looks like urban centers are trying to take control of our agriculture. Should starve cities to death Fuck off
Jordan Jackson
dumbfuck, its the urbanism that started thanks to bush that caused all this shit. Urban areas cause depression and cheap food causes obesity. This is a sign that government is getting too restrictive; not a justification for more restrictiveness unless you want a fucking civil war.
Xavier Green
Actually, it's because American culture is spiraling the toilet in a degenerate cycle of laziness, hedonism, corporate shilling and stupidity.
