Study reports a big bite into a financial whopper to be a big gal!

It costs at least $4,879 more a year to be an obese woman than "regular-sized" and nearly twice what obese male counterparts have to pay, reports a study in The New York Post.

"It’s much harder to be an obese woman that an obese man," said researcher Christine Ferguson, a George Washington University professor." That $4,800 number is a very conservative number."

The story continues to say that according to the study obese women don’t earn as much as thinner ladies and rank in $1,855 less annually, while big guys are unaffected in the wage department.
