That is impressive. I am probably 40 pounds heavier or more than my weight at 18 years of age. Am definitely not as active as back then. Have a desk job and watch Netflix too much. So for sure understand why America is fatter now.

When each family had their own farm land to cultivate, provided their own food, cut their own wood for heat, etc...t’was a different world but a healthier one. They were the fit and healthy ones compared to now. Society has not benefited in many ways from supposed “progress.”

I think it is all about are you comfortable with that. If so-fine. I have a hard time believing folks who are 100 pounds or more overweight like themselves like that and therefore I wonder if a 250 lb. nurse is going to do the best job? Look at Dr’s. Most seem to be what was normal, but; more and more are getting like the new normal.
