And then there were OBEASTS. (An article on obesity growth +concerns) http://abcnews.go.com/Health/americans-obese-2030-report-warns/story?id=17260134 By 2030, 50-60% of the population will be obese, so I'll estimate that 70-80% will be overweight. As the article states, being overweight is basically a doorway to every cause of a premature death. If such a large population ends up being this obese, then at some point, their health problems will take them and BAM. We lose at least 50% of the U.S. Its weird to think about. Or maybe our healthcare system will collapse under the weight (lol) of all the ridiculous medical procedures. I'm worried that skinny or AVERAGE/ human sized people will be shamed more and more, increasing the percentage even more. When Tess H. and Melissa M. Have died from a "shocking" heart attack or blood clot or whatever, inevitably even more obese HAES effyourbeautystandards advocates will rise, drowning out the well-educated and yet "incorrect/fat shaming" doctors. Will obesity BECOME THE beauty standard just because people don't want to deal with getting off their lazy asses???? This genuinely concerns me.
