Some people gain like 15 pounds per year, or someone quiting a diet might gain pretty fast, but 15 pounds per month for a average American is just plain wrong.

I can tell you I used to eat 10,000 calories a day I could eat 2 whole boxes of sugar loaded cereal in 1 day & weighed less than 99 pounds still, but I always felt very bloated & drowsy. Not all americans eat this way though, some eat very healthfully. But I agree they should start making things on our menus more healthy, or maybe use lean beef for our burgers, & more reduced fat substitutes in resturaunts & fast food chains.

The overconsumption is partly due to the unhealtthy calories, carbs, and sugars. The unhealthy sugars lead to sugar addiction and overeating. I agree with overconsmption of Americans.
