Those are huge differences and I simply don't understand why, if obesity is nothing more then an illness, or a symptom of a greater problem, so many more North American's become obese?

Yeah you do, you are just being polite.
As I've said before, there is a health problem for some. But it's nowhere near the amount of people who THINK they have a problem. They just lazy.
