ever been elsewehere ? I did. I can tell for sure that MORE than "some" in the us are 'overweight' compared to other countries, eg. EU.

However, EU is coming up in that list too slowly.

That we in the us 'live longer' is wrong (you cant get round that fact) and that we live better lives, hmm.ok..depends what you compare it to. Zaire, Kenia, Iraq, China ? Sure

Also....you say "...some are OW"....."they still live longer and better lives"...i HIGHLY doubt that some 300 lbs guy lives longer and a better life....not to mention health problems :)
