If I had to guess, I would say that life expectancy in USA would start climbing again if all the obese people managed to shave, say, 5 points off their BMI. Morbid and supermorbid obesity is horribly widespread there. Of course, it is more likely that the rest of the world catches up than that the US slims down.
