Let's Move to a neighboring country where manual labor jobs provide physical exercise and then let's send the earnings back home to feed the family.
I wish they would move.

It's funny, but I read an article about this latest ranking of obese countries and outside of the USA most of the others in the top ten are very poor countries. You would think people would the the thinnest in places where they don't have enough money to buy food.
The problem in these countries as it turnes out is that they end up eating the cheapest things available and this usually sugar and grains.

From what I have seen, our biggest obesity problem is in our poorer population just like what you said about the rest of the world.

Heard on the news this morning that if a boy scout has a BMI 40 or over, they will not be allowed to participate in the Boy Scout Jamboree this year.
