Yeah. The men of my dad’s generation were thin as whippets, especially when young, but they worked, physically, every day and worked hard.

In all honesty, they also lived on a diet of coffee and cigarettes, so there’s that.

My 83 year old mother volunteers at the local hospital.  They had to replace all of the standard wheelchairs with oversized units to accommodate all of the fat-asses that come to the hospital.

The new new chairs are wider than the doorway to the rooms so someone has help these fat fucks from the door to the bed or the bed to the bathroom.  My little old mom weights like a 115 pounds and has to push these human garbage cans around the hospital all day, she says it is almost impossible for her to push some of these beasts around.

Getting to 600 pounds takes some serious work.  If they'd put a tenth of the effort into losing weight that they did into gaining it, they'd be down to a healthy weight in no time.

There are plenty of fat smokers.

Correlation does not equal causation. Food pyramid has more to do with the increase in fatties than anything. There were still skinny people in the 70's and 80's.
Plus other nutritional myths like eating several times a day.

Another phenomenon is the change in the perception of what is representative of normal human proportions. If you look at the diet threads in GD you will notice this. Fatties go on a diet and the goal weight - is still fat. The big fear is becoming "too skinny".

Normally proportioned people are routinely mocked in GD. It reminds me of the fat acceptance feminists, the triggly puffs.

I recently was asked by a health care provider about the logistics of transporting one of their patients to a hospital for tests.  They swear up and down the guy weighs 600 pounds.  The problem for them is the ambulance company says he won't fit through the door.  The fire department is willing to "fix" that situation but then that would leave the house standing wide open.  I told them the homeowner should hire someone to put in oversize doors in the house but that was just too damned logical and everyone wants to make it local government's problem.  The last time I saw one that big moved was post-mortem.  The FD sawed through the side of the house into the bedroom because they couldn't make the turns to get him out the patio sliding doors.  Appalachia has more than it's share of wildly obese people it would seem.

The sideshow freak from 1885 was just putting up rookie numbers.
