How did you conduct your survey? only online? the internet infrastructure is varied in many countries and you could get a very skewed demographic in some countries. E.g in India you may have mostly been getting responds rich fat indians.

it's surprising how the less developed countries voted more to lose ten pounds for good than take the 10k. i guess they must have self-image issues...
