[Sbp]

Nope. Im from Port City. My paternal grandfather side was from NO. His dad died protecting him, his brother and his wife from some racists and relocated to Shreveport. Lister is the name we use now but the original family name was lost.

This can't be true. According to these numbers, every 1 in 3 people we see or know should be obese

My fave episode.

Mississippi held the fattest state title forever, but they finally gave it up

Those charts don't account for body composition and assumes a number on the scale is unhealthy. Olympic wrestlers above 190 and NFL skill positions are "overweight/obese".

Man this ain't the 60s breh nobody I know eats any of that shyt WTF

It’s the Rotel, conecuh sausages, and cookouts that mess us up in alabama. Not to mention the prevalence of fast food options being the only option in some locales.

Michelle Obama tried to implement healthier lunches, and took snack machines out down here (but some schools have a store that sells them. These kids are addicted to hot fries, hot taki chips, basically any and everything hot. 15-20 years later, there is going to be a lot of their generation getting ulcers and having other gastrointestinal issues.

Yeah but pro football players and Olympians don't make up the general population. I get what you're saying though a man can be 5'9 185 and be technically overweight but if he's working out regularly he'll look muscular instead of fat.

That’s not how stats work. A metropolitan area like NYC will have more thin people - higher income/education people tend to be thinner, plus the cultural norms there - what’s desirable, and all the walking. But go upstate where there’s less emphasis on day to day walking, looks, healthy eating, they’ll have more fatasses…maybe every 3 in 5 people. At the end of the day it balances out to the overall percentage.


Always say, you wanna see how fat America is - have a layover in the Midwest, plains, or southern states

The Northeast and California

Colorado

I visited Denver, Colorado Springs, and Grand Junction, that are all in Colorado. Almost all the locals where either walking, hiking, running with their dog, water activities, etc. Damn, makes me want to live there
