"What about having triple bypass and being 10 - 12 lbs. overweight?"

Obviously not being fat is not the sole determining factor of whether you are healthy or not. But if you are 100 pounds overweight, I can pretty much guarantee you that you have health problems. So the point I was trying to make is to contradict the article and say yes being obese is unhealthy. There's no other way to slice it....

I am in pretty good shape for almost 70, still run, fast walk over 4 miles, lift weights - but am about 10 lbs. over my ideal weight.

No one thinks I’m obese, but I was wondering what amount of “overweight” qualified in the author’s thinking........
