51% of Mexican-American women between the ages of 40 and 59 are considered to be obese. BUT, the good news is that a lot of it will magically be lost. Ok, maybe not magically, but the percentage goes down a lot.
"Middle-age adults are still packing on the most pounds. The study found that 53 percent of non-Hispanic black women and 51 percent of Mexican-American women between 40 and 59 were classified as obese, compared with 39 percent of non-Hispanic white women.
After age 60, the obesity rate for black women jumped to 61 percent, though it declined to 37 percent for Mexican-American women and to 32 percent for non-Hispanic white women, according to the report."

Did I tell you my gramma's doctor said only ONE tortilla a day? (Not for obesity, but for clogged arteries.) Turns out lard isn't too good for you after all. Out of control. :( Actually, since she started doing that, she's lost like 20 lbs!
That's amazing that she lost that much weight due to cutting out some tortillas!
