Everybody was skinny

Everybody was reasonably healthy!
haha... no
Not everyone, but there was usually one far kid in class… my graduating class in 1987 had about 500 kids in it. Maybe 5-10% would be considered overweight or maybe chubby by today’s standards, but the only morbidly obese kid was named Jeff H. At about 6’ tall he was probably 325-350.
Times have sure changed, especially in the big cities. Since we moved to a small town, most of the kids are farm kids and from what I can see are overall much more active and in better shape than the city kids I always saw 4 years ago. More responsible too! Just my observations, YMMV ;-)
