(16,900 posts)6. I knew Colorado had to be way up there.
Kids, especially, seem to be healthy weights in this state. I remember years ago visiting my sister in Florida and going with her to pick up her daughter who was in the ninth grade at the time. I was shocked at the obesity of the kids there compared to Colorado.
And, of course, since I posted this in the California Group, that California is also way up there.
