America is obsessed by the idea of being fit. It is a media gimmick to show everyone being fabolously thin and living better than their fat counterparts. Yes, thin is in. And everyone wants to feel that sense of acceptance and glamour tagged with having the perfectly fit body. I firmly believe beauty and peace with ones self is attained by knowing ourselves first, and appreciating what gifts we are given. Looking after what is in or what is out and competing with another wont make us happier in the long run...

They're obsessed more with being thin than fit, I think. Since the society makes it look like thin = hot and fat = ugly. Despite the fact that about 25% of Americans are fat...

No, we just pretend to be.
It's a desperate attempt for fat people to get un-fat, but in reality they are too lazy to commit to it. So then they go complain and sue McDonald's because they ate 3 big macs a day and got fat.
