  I created this post and then edited it a few seconds later. Apparently the changes didn’t propagate.

    Sure, but what constitutes obesity in the U.S.A.?

    • possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      It is based on BMI

      I first noticed when I went to a Walmart in the South.

        I understand it would be based on BMI, but the threshold for obesity varies per country. I remember the health ministry in my country increased the threshold for obesity from 24 to 25 in an attempt to decrease the obesity numbers.

        Eventually, BMI only works for “regular” people and not for “sportive” people or “athletes” as muscle is heavier than fat. (A body builder may have a BMI of 26 with little to no fat)
