We didn't have chocolate milk as an option at my elementary schools. I would bring Nesquik powdered chocolate mix wrapped in foil paper(we didn't have ziploc bags in my day) and make my own chocolate milk.

That's dedication my friend.
That's the spirit.

I was in Florida two years ago at Walt Disney World and damn I saw a ton of human manitees down that way. There were some so fat they had to rent the motorized scooters because they couldn't walk around the park due to their size.

People tend to be thinner in Canada but we are catching up to the US.

One thing I always notice when I go to the US, your food portions in restaurants are way larger than our's.

This is the central problem. For all the debate over the extent to which the US should emulate Europe, no one ever addresses portion sizes, which are far smaller in Europe. US citizens need to exercise better portion control, especially when they eat out.

We went to Italy last year for a holiday and much preferred the portion sizes there. Even when we came back we noticed that we couldn't finish what we got here.

Next up: Civil Rights groups for the overweight and a new moniker for all the haters.
Any suggestions? Fataphobes? Fatists?

Well I did hear a bunch of fat chicks saying once they were fat and fit.

But I doubt there will be a group for them, no one likes fatties.

Insurance companies set group rates based on the entire population of the group's healthcare costs. It has nothing to do with BMI or anything like that. It's why healthy people want the fat slobs to stop eating so much, and stop driving up everyone's healthcare costs.

If you don't think the primary driver of increasing healthcare costs is obesity related illnesses, you are completely ignorant and should just stop talking about this topic. It's not up for debate.

As for the people who think carrying around 20 or 30 extra pounds of fat on your gut isn't unhealthy and you're not obese, you need to go get a biometric screening, because I guarantee your blood pressure is probably at least at pre-hypertension levels, and it's been proven time and again that even only 20 pounds of stomach fat drastically increases your risk for heart disease and cancer.

Stop being fat. Seriously, if you are a man and you are over 12% body fat you need to get your body in order. All it takes is eating the right amount of calories and actually exercising. I eat 3000 calories a day easily and I'm only 175 pounds. I used to be about 40 pounds overweight and a disgusting lazy slob, and I have no tolerance for others doing the same and driving up healthcare costs for everybody else.
