The data is out there, and study after study after study, shows undeniable evidence that being overweight is associated with/causative of numerous health problems. Even when it's a glandular problem (which does happen - ie Cushing's), there are risks due just to carrying around the extra weight.

I don't disagree that being fat is not healthy...however, studies also show that someone who exercises regularly and eats decently healthy, but is still overweight, can be healthier than a skinny person who sits around and eats junk food all day.
