no, not being a fat anchor on the gov. dime is important for everyone.
Severe obesity still rising fast in the U.S
The number of Americans who are severely obese shot up by 70 percent in the past decade or so, though the increase has slowed down in more recent years, a new study finds.
Between 2000 and 2010, the proportion of Americans who were severely obese - at least 100 pounds overweight - rose from 4 percent to almost 7 percent.
The increase showed signs of slowing after 2005, researchers found. But the bad news is that the severely obese remain the fastest-growing segment of obese Americans, said study leader Roland Sturm, a senior economist at the non-profit research ins ute RAND Corporation.
More than one-third of U.S. adults are obese, which means having a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher. BMI is a measure of weight relative to height.
Recent studies have found that the nation's obesity rate, among adults and kids, may be leveling off. But most of those folks are moderately obese.
"Everybody's talking about obesity leveling off," Sturm said. But what tends to get "lost" in the discussion is the fact that severe obesity - BMIs of 40 or higher - is still rising fast.

Implying thin people could successfully keep a boat from drifting out to sea. please
That's a very common fat girl pose. It keeps you from noticing just how fat their face is. All she needs now it the duck bill.
Let's see you say that same thing if that 1st person is sitting next to you on a flight.
You like his ass?
And if your sense of touch was impaired, your equilibrium would catch it as soon as he laid on the bed next to you and your ears popped.
So you truly think an overweight person cannot be beautiful!? There are plenty of ugly, thin, athletic in shape people too you know.
But but you guys are putting words into my mouth! I didn't say grossly obese people are not disgusting physically, I just said there are some thin people with equally offensive at udes! Sheesh!

But if on a flight, you can tune out the thin annoying person with headphones. There's no tuning out the gobs of lard that are overlapping the armrest onto your lap.

You seriously think that whale is attractive?
If you looked like Joe Chalupa, you wouldn't be picky either.
My but we're a hyperbolic lot, aren't we?
I am, personally, not attracted to Adele. I don't want to her. And most of that has to do with her weight. But that doesn't mean she hasn't got a pretty face. And it certainly doesn't mean she's a hideous whale.
that doesn't mean they are attractive, just easy
They are not mutually exclusive, however I can physically flip the ugly thin one and ass her. The fat one will still be fat. Beautiful? Sure, because the term, to me, means more of who they are than how they look, but sexually attractive? No. I am not sexually attracted to ing a 5 gallon bucket of lard and beef liver.
Tbh why do you think she is always ing about losing someone in her songs? No one wants to that fat whale (sans chalupa)
Weaksauce you're better than that Eddie
Damnit Edward! And damn you too mouse.![]()

Spurstalk has the 2nd most six-pack laden broheims behind the Men's Health Forums...tbh.
