Knew it was the south before even clicking..

All that sun and heat like here in California and nikkas sitting on they ass all day...

50 minute walks 3 days a week will be beneficial

Imagine AL and MS brehs eating kale and seaweed and shyt

We need more healthy food options down south though. Churches Chicken, Waffle House, Cracker Barrel, Golden Corral, KFC,McDonalds, Popeyes, Dairy Queen, i could go on listing all the restaurants down there on every corner that offer no nutritional value but people eat there en masse.

Iowa seems pretty random compared to the other states.

It might help, but people don't just eat that shyt cause they're forced to; They grew up eating a certain way and its enjoyable to them

IMO the underreported aspect of the connection between poverty and obesity is the stress and unpredictability. You can have a plan to eat affordable, reasonably nutritious meals, but if your hours keep changing and you keep having to scramble for solutions just to make it through minor unexpected events, you get to the point where you say "fukk it", cause hitting up the drive thru and watching a show may be the only bit of happiness you get all day

Mississippi is understandable. All they do is eat all day

They got some real hefty white folk in the Midwest

I've never... and I mean never... seen a fine BBW walk out of the local Lane Bryant store. They all nasty 40+ BMI or something like that.
