Average American female: 5'4 & 165 pounds

[BlackAchilles]

I noticed this when I went to Europe

All the females nice and skinny

I saw plenty of fat people when I went to Spain, and that was 12 years ago, its gotta be worse now.

Anyway, for further reading here's a CDC breakdown of obesity by race, gender, and socioeconomic level:

Interestingly, affluent black men are way fatter than poor black men, and affluent white women are noticeably less obese than middle/low income ww.

... Black women are universally at least 45% Obese though . Personally I blame Oprah

According to the stats posted in this thread, Africa (including Nigeria in your example) is the only place where the majority of people are not overweight.

The majority of people in Europe and South America (Latin America) are overweight (inching toward 60% in both of these places).

I've been to Europe and Latin America and they still seemed a lot skinnier on average
a fair amount of chubby people but never any walmart scooter type people

I thought we were talking about stats in this thread. The stats say that the majority of Europe and Latin America are overweight (I didn't make them up…just using what you guys gave). The stat for the US is higher, but it is the majority in all three.

I know that the majority of them are overweight but they're still not as fat as Americans. You won't see any scooters at the supermarkets there.

not eating as much and as consistently as you should actually slows down your metabolism. if you're one of those types that eats shytty food throughout the day, but then just eat one "big meal" or binge eats later during the day your stomach and body isn't built or fit for that. so say even if i'd go out to eat and not finish my plate, because i don't eat meals and just snack on unhealthy crap throughout the day, it fills me up more and your body holds onto it because you've been basically starving your body throughout the day of necessary nutrients and vitamins.

my dad used to just binge eat like a once a day and eat snacks and garbage junk food through out the day, he was fat..

then he started eating more and better throughout the day and went to the gym a few times a week and lost over a hundred pounds in less than a year.

Damn yall nikkas argue about anything, there are fat people both male and female around the world, height can affect the way weight looks on someone, people need to go to the gym and eat healthier

Okay that's fine. I was just correcting a factually incorrect statement made earlier in the thread.

So what is your point exactly? There are more fat people in America than the other countries you named. Your stats prove that. That was the entire point of this thread. The only one referring to stats is yourself. If your secret agenda is to somehow defend obesity in America, then you're pouring jelly on yourself.
