Wow, I would have though Florida would be much lower than 21.9 since it is always hot and we are outdoors all year round. Going to the beach, lot’s of models in South Florida, etc.

The rednecks in the other end of your state tip the scales (pun intended).

I can't believe MA is the 2nd skinniest! I see a fair share of obese people here. I wonder what they're using as the definition for obesity.

Very well put. The northern part of the state is killing us because we are way to sexy in South Florida.

Texans aren't that fat, we're just stashing our BBQ sammiches in case of an emergency.

You got that right!!!

Though I see a lot of "hot bodies" on the beach, the people who are overweight... are REALLY overweight!!!

Well down to 9 from 8. So, while Indiana is getting fatter, the rest of the country is even faster. Based on some people in my neighborhood, that's hard to believe.

I hardly ever see overweight people in VT so I'm not surprised it's ranked at #49. They're too busy hiking mountains in the summer, and skiing down them in the winter

Why is the problem getting WORSE? Has anyone else seen those lame "Groove your Body 30 minutes a day" billboards? They're way too lame to have an impact. They have done a good job of making exercise look uncool.

nm it's just minnesota
