I'm in Texas right now, and I'm shocked that they're barely in the top ten.
We are the United States of Obesity.

I was in Colorado last week and come to think of it, the populace was quite aesthetic. I appreciate you posting this. Regardless of the rankings, this is extremely disturbing and needs to be addressed at a country-wide level. We need to realize that obesity is the biggest public health issue our generation faces and severely needs addressing. The ramifications of these levels of obesity on public services in the near future need to be considered not only by individuals but also by those in charge of our government.
Louisiana got the best food so they are forgiven![]()
co-sign on Colorado. I visited once and anytime I meet anyone from Dthere, it seems like they all run triathalons. I think completing an Olympic Ironman is required for Denver residency.
Everybody worried about their place on this list. The sad part is the spread isn't far enough for anyone to really be "proud."
Mass brethren Stand Up!!!!!

Why does it show 51 states though ?
Washington D.C is included cause its not a State or City
Hey this is THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!! though.I just wanted to point out that even the thinnest state is still at a strong 20.7, whereas you have countries like Italy at 8.5, Norway at 8.3, and Switzerland at 7.7. Eastern Europe as a whole is around the 10% mark. Korea and Japan being the lowest at 3.2. The U.S as a whole is 30.6. These statistics only cover obesity, but now doctors are creating newer categories for the whales. Even with Western influence these countries still manage to level out year by year. US=Work,Work,Work. Brb, only 2 weeks of vacations, 9 sick days, and 3 personal days, while the rest of the world is vacationing for 2 months out of the year, unlimited sick days. Feels bad man.
It ain't about being lazy either, it's the food choices, go to a supermarket and read a food label any label and the top 2 ingredients will be Sugar (or some form of sugar) and wheat.No, they are slobs. People in other 1st world countries aren't (on average) as fat as us. So it ain't just about metabolism and genes, americans are lazy.
I see DC down near the bottom though, not surprised considering how every hoodlum out here looks malnourished![]()

Surprised that we're only at 23.8% but I ain't mad at that
