This is a bit surprising because working out burns very few calories, obesity come from over eating.
I wonder if this could mean that a larger population of health conscious people means gyms are more profitable.
So skinny people mean you need more gyms, and not the opposite.

Not just abundance of food, but also an abundance of convenience. Everything is extremely easy, there's less reason to move around. Not many people are skipping meals because they don't have time.
It's not necessarily a bad thing, but people need to change how make decisions.

You are right. When humans have false idea of abundance they get fat lazy and purse ideas that makes zero sense.
If times were hard the women on only fans would have million dollar incomes for just showing their feet
