We can only fall so far until survival of the fittest comes back into play and people have to actually compete for resources, at which point the obeasts will start dying off and/or be motivated to get fit. That won't happen unless we've fallen so far that people are starving to death and killing each other for resources, which is pretty catastrophic, but it's a lower bound beyond which fat people can't push us below.

Thing is, we only have to fall low enough to trigger nuclear annihilation. That's a lot less farther down than survival of the fittest.
