*breaks out the slide whistel and plays ernie a theme song*

But really, I wonder why some people have such fast ones, and other peoples hardly work?

Everyone is born differently. Fat people are born one way (sort of), thin people another...

I'm 13yrs old, weigh around 113-114 pounds and am 5'6". I am pretty sure that thta is NOT overweight, and i don't usually spend alot of time just sitting down, i also do quite a bit of running :P

*slaps head* i forgot the most importanat thing...
i think maybe around 1/3 - 1/2 of AG'ers are overweight

i think 5-10% there is a lot of kids

I agree. those are better numbers.

i play soccer (football) for a living so im not obese so i would say 20-30% but maybe more if you include the people which don't have a user on AG

Yep got that right.

yes, from 5%-10%. Great number.
