I hate fat people because of Math 5: The Future is bleak Data used is 2007-2010 data, and 1988-1994 data. I will use 1991-2009 as the range. In this time: *Men *Weight: +14.2lbs (0.788lbs per year) *Height: +0.3" (0.0166" per year) *BMI: +1.9 (0.1055 per year) *Women *Weight: +13.2lbs (0.733lbs per year) *Height: +0.1" (0.00555 per year) *BMI: +2.3 (0.127 per Year) If trends carry through, the outlook is bleak. By 2050: Men	 Weight: 227.8lbs Height: 70"	 BMI: 33.5 Women Weight: 196.3lbs Height: 64.0" BMI: 34.5 From 2009 to 2050, assuming adult population rises ~2Million per year, American adults will: Gain 8,885,320,422 Pounds Requiring 31,587,314,100,210 Calories to create gain (3555 calories per pound) Require 1,067,205,017,190 Calories to maintain gain (6 calories per pound; cumulative) Total calories extra eaten 32,654,519,117,400 Calories This is ~796,451,685,790 Calories per year (41 years) This is ~2,180,565,874 Calories per day (365.25 days/year) TWO BILLION calories per day. BILLION. This could feed 1,453,710.5 people 1,500 calories per day. There are 800 million starving people world wide*.  Two billion calories is not a lot in reality, with an adult population in America of nearly 250 million, this is less than 10 calories per adult. *Starving people in the world isn't the fucking main issue here, fat people are.
