What'll life be like when everyone is obese?

So you read all these reports about how 70% of the population will be obese by 2015 (or whatever), so what'll life be like for the remaining healthy 30%.. pickings will be slim! (no pun intended)

Update:

hah good answers everyone, but the point i was more angling at was the fact that there'd be many fewer attractive people around, it'd be way less fun

    Public transport would need to increase seat sizes, waiting rooms the same. 5 or 7 standing allowed on a bus will be reduced to 3. Restaurant portions would need to be increased ans so up will go the cost of eating out. People working in sugar refineries will be put out of work due to the increase in diabetics. Perhaps they could all be put to work in the insulin making factories. Tennis courts etc will need additional reinforcement as to will car springs. The possibilities are endless.

    there will be a world war between the fattest people through out the world. they will be fighting over a large supply of cold cuts, cheese steaks, bloomin onions, and the opportunity to own a chain of Home town Buffets. yes this is serious, truly frightening just make your in 2015 you only have food items such as apples and salad.... or for lack of a better word... your "screwed"

    There is too much vanity in the world for there to ever be a time when everyone will be obese.
