[quote=Anonymous]Moved to us from eur as young adult and was shocked my first few months here as to how many fat and or overweight people there were. I got used to it. I'm middle aged now and people sometimes comments on how slim I am. But newsflash is that I am normal healthy BMI. Our references get skewed. Fun fact: I still use my same dishes fron years ago that I had purchased in Austria (where I grew up). The width of my dinner plates are 1-2 inches smaller than standard dinner plates here. Everything is bigger here, literally everything, incl. the people. It is a systemic problem with many factors including processed food that is ubiquitous, cup holders in cars, so called small drinks that I'd consider medium of r large in EU. [/quote]
