The clinical definition of obesity is a lot "skinnier" than you might think. Where do you live. In Memphis and now in Milwaukee I am surrounded by obese people all the time.

Dunno....I suppose if it's hard to breathe at sea level, they're not going to try their luck at 5k'....
i did a month on the bariatric surgery service. gastric bypasses and such. there exist many really, really large people out there. we even had a special term for those over BMI 50-60: "extreme obesity". (and you haven't seen it all until you've seen a person with a BMI of 94 walk, yes, walk into clinic.)
94. Dear Lord...I'd only have to gain 520 pounds to hit that BMI.
CO, supposedly the fittest state in the union. i can't seem to get back under 200 after all the traveling & dining out this summer. and now my thyroid's acting up...
i'm slowly becoming that which i hate
Better watch out fatty. Check your BMI regularly or you could creep into obesity without even knowing it.
I went to a "training" on promoting a wholesome, professional image at work. We are require to wear club t-shirts to work. After the professional image seminar, where we covered among other things, coming to work in clean clothes that FIT, we were given club t-shirts to wear. The smallest size they had was an XL. It comes down to my knees.
You work at a Club? I'm guessing a bouncer.
According to the BMI charts I'm 1 point away from being obese. I don't get it. I'm pretty scrawny.

does TN know about this "feature"?
The Boys and Girls Club. While my official title is Educator, bouncer is more accurate.
It's how I convinced him to marry me.
When I first saw that headline, I hoped against hope that it was meant literally.
Another day, another disappointment.
That's redundant, like "extreme Greg Herbold" or "paranoid delusional Rockwool."
