This doesn't pass the smell test without more evidence. a) how do you know 'tons of obese people' b) how many of them have you actually seen do one real push ups let alone 100.

> a) how do you know 'tons of obese people'

Not the parent, but that's really easy. Much easier to know a ton of obese people than a ton of anorexic people.

For instance, I'm on the low end of obese (by American standards). If you take myself and about 5-6 of the people I see at Friday Night Magic, that's one ton right there.

That was an incredibly clever comeback.
Technically, a ton of obese people is about ten or fewer such people.
