It's normalized in the US to be fat. All the people around are fat too, so they are rarely shaming. You'll fit right in.

If you're the only fat one in the group (like when you go to most of Asia) they usually make sure you know - repeatedly - that you're the fat one. It's a pretty big incentive to not be that one.

If everyone else is fat too, then why bother (aside from the million health and happiness reasons)

Let's also just ignore all the food and economic reasons why it's so much easier to eat better and stay skinnier in other countries and just blame the people
