[quote=Anonymous]Having moved here years ago as a young adult from a country with overhalf the obesity rate as us. I was shocked at how many big people I saw. But I was also surprised at all the portion sizes at restaurants, sodas, even the kiddie size ice cream cup is a normal size for an aft elsewhere. Plus add the snack culture, the emphasis on grain products and highly processed, highly palatable salty food, you've got a recipe for disaster. Before skinny people pay ourselves on the back though, we are not immune to "fat people diseases". Our rates of type 2 diabetes is half of an obese person. But half the rate is still too high. Metabolic disease, while much more prevalent in obese people, still afflicts the skinny ones too. [/quote]
