Obese is defined as a BMI over 30. On an individual level, it isn't a perfect scale - for example, extremely tall people or extremely short people can have misleading BMIs due to the square cube law, but across society it can showcase trends, and the percentage of people who have a BMI of greater than 30 has tripled in the US since the 1960's. There are other numbers you can look at as well - percent that are overweight, average body fat percentage, etc. but overall it is undeniable. The average American used to be a healthy weight. Now they are not.
