Well, you're clearly better than the rest of the mere mortals on the planet. Congratulations; you win.

I could go on but it's sad. We have so much abundance here, but so many poorly informed people.
More recent studies show that one reason is it's been normalized in many places so fat and obese people do not look out of place or feel out of place. The look "normal" because everyone else around them looks like they do.

Step away from the tv and start walking. Anyone can afford to walk. Stop making excuses.
AMEN

And if you live in a place where everyone's shooting everyone else right out in the street?

I don't think too many of these people have jobs. Many of them are on welfare.
The people on "Judge Judy" are a very small portion of the poor, working or otherwise, in the country.

I think your perspective has been skewed. Just because people look like you and those around you doesn't mean they aren't fat. If you think that the people on Judge Judy are a healthy weight, you should probably eat less.

This is kinda true.
I live in CA & recently traveled to FLA.
There were much more obese people there than I have ever seen here in SoCal.

All of the court shows are actors. One of my good friends was on an episode.
