BORN FAT Facts

The message of BORN FAT is not one that instructs that the end-result of weight loss is being skinny.  The desired effect: HEALTH.  Elizabeth has helped find some facts that hopefully illuminate how big a crisis obesity is in our nation and how you or someone you love can start living a healthier life...

According to the U.S. Center for Disease Control...
  • Almost 35% of U.S. adults are obese.
  • The annual medical cost for someone who is obese is over $1,400 annually over someone who is not overweight.
  • Every state in the nation has at least 20% of its total population considered obese.
  • Approximately 17% of children ages 2 to 19 are obese.  Good news: that number is declining!
  • Overall, obesity prevalence among children whose adult head of household completed college was approximately half that of those whose adult head of household did not complete high school.
