I see my state, Indiana, is right up there.

I'm doing my part to take Arkansas' numbers down!

Wow, progression graph was kind of scary to watch.

I'm not surprised. I don't think it's a coincidence where the highest concentration of obesity is. My state is second only to Mississippi. There is too much emphasis on fattening foods as part of our culture in the south, and it shows with these numbers.

I'm working on bringing lowering Iowa's percentage!

The slide show procession was pretty scary. Not surprised at the numbers, though. I see it everywhere I look around here.

That's amazing! Well, I'm help with the Florida numbers. I also noticed Colorado ranked the lowest number of fit people. Must be all the hiking, skiing, and outdoor activities there. It's almost like people there can't help but be fit.
