Obesity Not Only A Problem In America

[Cole]

Wow I am in the minority of the population in the U.S.!

well if things keep going the way they are, the smallest minority (in america) will be a skinny, white man.

I do wonder occasionally how they arrive at those stats. Do they just take a weight and match it against a height? Or does it have to be diagnosed obesity?

I'm tired of the constant bashes against Americans about being obese. I've known this for a while now, but finally there's a written article on the obesity problem around the world (specifically in Europe).

Awww, someone's jealous.
