Obesity more expensive for women

What a shock! Of course, it is. The heavier the person, the costlier everything gets. Even in the case of obesity. Think about it. Medical insurance, cost of living, everything.

Again, it's all based on statistics which I didn't do but there are enough studies on everything and this is the result. Obesity is expensive all around. And, yes it all comes down to money. The incremental costs faced by obese women are nine times higher than those for overweight women. Overweight in and of itself is costly but obese I guess means tipping the scale, literally in all ways.
