Re: Obesity rates, costs continue to climb

Yeah, as these people get older they become even more obese. They have to have knee surgery and can't exercise as much.

It will be interesting to see where the money is going to come from to fund the increasing health care costs of people with degenerative conditions. Gastric bypass can only go so far, and the number of people with obesity is climbing rapidly.

I've seen people who I would have never thought of becoming obese, suddenly ballooning in size. It amazes me how widespread this condition is. Tweet
