Um that map is for 2008. The McCain/Obama field is quite a bit different than bush/gore and bush/kerry

TsuruchiBrian: "Obese" in the map is in fact what you say, percentage of adults with BMI over 30 (BMI = mass/height^2 using meters and kilograms).honthraj: See above re definition of "obese." For epidemiological purposes, the muscle/fat issue is not meaningful. It averages out. That may be an issue for interpreting an individual's BMI, but not in population-wide studies.koolboy357: Alaska and Hawaii are in the "Mexican Sea" on the map, D.C. is near "Puerto Rico."The full data and the explanation of how it was derived is here:<a class="user" href="http://calorielab.com/news/2008/07/02/fattest-states-2008/">http://calorielab.com/news/2008/07/02/fattest-stat ...</a>

It's not automatic, it has to do with tradition and sub-par education.

Are you serious? There are a whole lot of fat people in Colorado.

while BMI is not as accurate as other methods it's still a pretty good indicator for adults...Plus, I know that a lot of people are "overweight" or "obese" that do not fit into the stereotypical appearance of what that should look like.

I know in Texas, it would help if there wasn't a Crispy Kreme, KFC, McDonalds and Dairy Queen on every corner. <a class="user" href="http://www.edrugsearch.com/about/">http://www.edrugsearch.com/about/</a>
