90% of US fat by 2020.

[Kuchinawa212]

Time to get to the gym!

 

[brunothepig]

LOL.

drawing lines through graphs is fun isn't it.

Gotta love xkcd. Actually, I haven't been there in a while. Thankyou grimspice.
Yeah, I'd like to see facts. But either way, I'm in Australia, and if the government were willing to be just a little more "authorative" we could prevent this. You know, make doorways a certain size etc.

 

[Shock and Awe]

Require all citizens go to a 6 week bootcamp, except without the firearms training, that'l learn em'!

 

[Kajin]

She looks like she has giant testicles.

Thank you for giving me nightmares for weeks to come.

You're welcome.

The rise and fall of empires eh? Does the empire fall to the earth, or does the earth fall onto the empires denizens? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Toaster Hunter]

Be thankful I'm fit and continue to laugh at the fat ones.

 

[Snotnarok]

I think I'm glad my metabolism keeps me from getting fat.

That and your lack of soul! >:O

I couldn't come up with anything better haha.

 

[blarghblarghhhhh]

like others i call bs on this. especially looking at the younger people of america. i think the "obesity epidemic" will work itself out over time.

 

[Delli6110]

Apparently, KFC's double down will have done some serious damage by 2020.

 

[Frank_Sinatra_]

I'll continue to work out and stay fit. I won't sink to the level of other Americans.

 

[The Cake Is Annoying]

Invade, maybe?


That statistic sounds so sensationalist I can't take it seriously. For a start there has to be enough citizens still doing demanding physical labour to make up more than 10%.

 

[Lolz374]

Well if this statistic is true... and Zombies take over the world
They will die first because the first rule is Cardio.. The fat people get eaten first D
Also, Fat people can't run really fast.. so fat zombies can't run fast either?
There is always a bright side to everything.. got to look at the glass half full XD

According to the height and weight chart


This man

Is obese.

And can run a 40-yard dash in 4.38 seconds. But is obese none the less.

 

[thom_cat_]

yeah don't listen to the BMI, use it as a rough guide, but it really does suck.

I'd like to say I won't be getting fat in the future and nor will my children
*shakes fist at sky*

 

[MagicMouse]

That prediction is so wrong.

First off that has to be exaggerated.

Second off the qualifications for overweight and obese are flawed in themselves. As they only take into account age, height and weight. For example: my 46 year old father who runs at least 5 miles on most days and has clearly defined muscle tone, is considered overweight and close to obese. Want to know why? Its because he is below average height and has above average muscle mass.

Third off People can be fat if they want to its their choice (usually) if they want to live that way.

Oh shi... we're screwed

 

[King of the Sandbox]

Well, America will be 50% obese and almost 90% overweight by 2020! Yay for us! Now, what are you going to do about it?

Any more stupid posts without any source you'd like to add?

This.

Good job feeding the trolls you guys. Way to be free thinkers.

 

[KiruTheMant]

I run up and down stairs all day to do even the most simple things and enjoy a jog/bike ride after dinner.

 

[crystalsnow]

*cough* bullshit *cough*

Source?

Agreed... without proof a claim is meaningless
