I'm visiting the U.S. in two weeks for the first time. Americans seem very fit, is there any fat person in the U.S.?

I'm been watching a lot of American TV shows and movies, and they seem so fit and good looking.

I'm from Barcelona, Spain

    Funny. Hollywood is not reality. The USA has a higher percentage of fat people than Europe has. Especially in the central states.

    You only need to see some news items on TV to see that there are a lot of very fat or extremely fat people in the USA. Quite possibly the USA has the greatest proportion of its population as very fat people compared with any other country.

    Of course there are lots of fat people. Movies and tv only choose the best looking people for shows.
