Colorado is where the skinny bitches are!...toasting and roasting in their juices. That's why its called Colorado. Its red like fire because its on fire half the time. Gotta stay skinny to survive I assume.

Even though they are the lowest, 25% still seems way too high to me.

Living in a walkable city is probably doing wonders for me. I walk about 3 miles several times a week without even thinking about it.

Correlates pretty directly to an income map, the great paradox of industrialization.

I've lived in Colorado for a long time and I don't think anywhere near 1 in 4 there are obese. Perhaps I have a fundamental misunderstanding of what that means but it seems way off.

Eastern Colorado is probably skewing the data.

Walking is good for your health, but weight is overwhelmingly determined by diet

Obesity is about 200lb for men and about 180lb for women, on average. Keep in mind it doesn't distinguish between muscle and fat, so John Cena is classified as obese.

Mississippi’s motto is the Fat Fuck State

As a Coloradian, it truly is eye opening when I visit family in the south. Everyone looks so uncomfortable just living.

The medical definition has stayed the same while society shifted.

If you can see any weight on someone they are medical overweight. If someone looks ‘chunky’ they are obese. Nearly any kind of visible potbelly is obese.
