[edit] Summary

Illustration of obesity and waist circumference

From left to right, as labeled in the original image, the "healthy" man has a 33 inch (84 cm) waist, the "overweight" man a 45 inch (114 cm) waist, and the "obese" man a 60 inch (152cm) waist.

Image has been modified to remove labels and in-image crediting, as well as waist circumference in inches, which could be confusing to persons unfamiliar with Imperial measurements.
