Can you give me a rough percentage, out of all the young (around 16-35) people you see, how many are obese?

I would say around 20-30%. Not all of them extremely obese, but definitely at an unhealthy weight.
But, I think you can be at normal weight but still be unhealthy, because of bad eating habits. I know a lot of people who should be obese by the things they eat, but aren't because they luckily have a fast metabolism.

Obesity is a problem in your country because of our lifestyles and limitations placed on children by the fear that a looney will snatch them.
We are suffering from an plenty.

There are far too many obese people in the U.S.A. As for answering your question as too how many there are, I don't know because I don't have the time to count the 24 million people in my city to find out.
When I was visiting Australia last year, I hardly saw any fat people. It was nice.
Americans are fat because of the following reasons:
1. Their diet is the worst of any developed nation on the planet.
2. They don't like to exercise.
3. Americans like to eat way too much of what's bad for them

My god. When I was growing up, the obsese were a minority. I can only remember a few people at my high school who were fat slobs. When I went back home for a visit, my parents took me to an all-you-can-eat-buffet. I was floored at the vast amounts of grossly obese children, teen-agers and young adults. Now I see it everywhere. It isn't just 10%. If you are a teen and you are wearing a size above 34, you are overweight. I've seen kids who are clearly pass the size 40. Even at 42, I am a size 33 and I weigh 185 lb!
