I see your point. Yes. A woman can get a man, and have sex, regardless of her situation. But, we're taking about attracting decent, upwardly mobile, black men.
Sorry, the only thing overweight black women are only going to attract is poor/broke guys looking to have quick sex and not much more.
Black guys who are decent, and have money, are going after the good looking American black women such as Draya Michele, or they're going to date outside their race like Taye Diggs. Just look around.... What successful black man in the public eye is married to an overweight black woman?
The problem is that there isn't exactly an abundance of these successful black men anyway, so even if more black women were in shape, they'd still have trouble finding eligible black men.
I think blacks are safer in Europe then here in the U.S. Why? Because America locks up more of it's own citizens (large % of them blacks) then any other country in the world. There is also more freedom and less work in Europe.
Embracing polygamy? Why? I don't think that's the only viable solution at all.

Might as well make best of the situation and pull everybody together for the sake of the children.

As I said, even though it's not for YOU, multiple black women could live with 1 successful black man just as how it's done in Saudi Arabia. Problem solved.
If every woman wants their own personal, rich, prince charming.... Well, count on being single for a long time because it's just not possible for every man to be successful.

I have Black American friends who moved to Europe, and became married to European men within 6 months of being there. All currently reside in Europe. I have one friend who went to Europe on a vacation, and came back to the states engaged to a European man. Your post is comical. Also, many Black women are thin. Petite and thin, and tall and thin. I come from an entire family of small women. You have no awareness of the profound global presence of Black women. Your lack of awareness renders you ignorant. The 'black women are fat' stereotype is elementary at this point.
"and became married to European men within 6 months of being there."
That is very odd as marriage rates in Europe and the US are plumenting. I think small examples in Europe and other places are amplified in our vision. And of course we in the US are worse than everywhere else on every issue in the world.
"The 'black women are fat' stereotype is elementary at this point"
Considering there are entire countries filled with extremely thin women in Africa this never made much sense to me. Same with the Big Butt thing. On the other hand if all I watched were Rap videos I would think that 95% of black women had big poppin butts...Stereotype fails

It's not the same as traveling to Europe to find love.
There might be one advantage. In some European countries there are fewer black people. Hence you will stand out more. But there are some disadvantages too. Europeans are more biased against fat girls, and many black women are fat. Also, it is generally harder for women than for black men in Europe. In general European men prefer white or sometimes asian. European women prefer white or sometimes black.
Also, don't believe Europe is less racist than America. Absolutely not true.

A good portion of black women that travel go over to predominately black countries, with beautiful black men,good food, and warm weather.

As a black woman, I have to agree with this statement.

They reside in Whales.
Far too many black women in the U.S. have internalized the negative messages and actually believe that they are unworthy of solid/long term commitments and marriage.
I disagree that black women believe it. The problem is black women fall in love with poor quality black men. The amount of black men that are incarcerated is ridiculous. Being a black male, and seeing my own father go to jail, hits right at home for me. When you add teen mother to the equation, it's only harder for black women.
It's not that black women aren't desired, it's just there's less quality black men to go around. Many black women want to marry a black man, just as a white woman usually wants to marry a white man. When you have less quality to sift from within your own race, you have to start venturing outside of it.
