The thing is, I rarely see "fat" people where ever I'm at. So, I don't know what observable metric they're using.

Overweight people look normal by todays standard, so they arent thought of as overweight.

Yet in a year where a new virus preyed on the overweight and obese not a single public health official told the American people to stop eating like shit and to workout to reach healthy weights. Its really pathetic.

BMI. BMI over 25 = "overweight," and that describes a lot of people.

Yeah but I had a bmi of 28.5 at sub 10% bf for a while. Bmi is really every bit as useless as people say it is.

My bmi would sound better now and I'm in way shitter shape despite being a lot lighter.

I'm overweight per BMI. If I get under 180 people say I look sick, even though BMI says I'm still overweight

In my part of North Carolina I see overweight occasionally, obese rarely.

But mostly the big guys just look thick and burly, not sloppy or lazy fat.

A body builder thats like 511 220 pounds and low body fat is still considered obese.

you're right, these stats are just because there are so many bodybuilders

Honestly the pandemic probably made this a lot worse. Shut down gyms and keep people in their homes so theyre bored and eating and more inactive.

I totally agree theres too many fatties in America, but BMI by itself is kind of a dumb/outdated metric.

With the sarcasm. Like let's be generous and say it gets knocked down to 65%. It's still a pretty big problem.

BMI is terrible

When I was 5'7 115 lbs before I started working out I was considered a normal weight for a male lol.

Overweight people are high risk for covid deaths so they probably staying home.

I think we're just conditioned to seeing overweight people. I live in supposedly the fittest state and I often seen people who could lose 30lbs, like that's a "normal" body in the US

I went to switzerland and almost no one looks like that. Regular folk would be considered very fit by american standards
