They need to readjust their definitions a bit. Michael Jordan was overweight according to the guidelines. And when I was below the overweight mark, I couldn't find pants small enough in the waste for me in my length.
But what point does OPs statistic make? That's like saying 82% of hospitalizations were people that live in urban areas. This is just reflection of our population.
Yes, a lot of people weigh more than they should. I just went to the doctor today, and he said I'd lost 25 pounds in the past year. I was trying to think of what I had done and realized that I had a big dump this morning and may not have had one before last year's visit. For me, that can make a good difference. :)
Breaking911's statement isn't very powerful when you realize what the whole country is like now.
I do like some Krispy Kreme though. I live in their home state.
72% of Americans are overweight or obese...

So 72% is probably a bit of an exaggeration.
