I visit family in other states and I get comments like "I can't believe you are so thin." For context I am a healthy weight and I eat what I consider a reasonable diet. I sit and smile while I watch them drink soda and eat pure sugar and salt. I don't care about your life choices but don't act surprised by someone that's a normal weight.
Is it possible they're expressing admiration or paying you a compliment and not trying to invoke your smirking condescension?
Incidentally, according to the most recent CDC numbers, Colorado is no longer "green" on this map, just Hawaii and DC.
There's only eight states under 30%. West Virgina tops the numbers at 41%.
~75% of the United States is classified as overweight or obese, which is staggering. It has to be pretty unevenly distributed even within states, because I live in a college town in a low-middle-weight state, and very few appear obese, and I'm regularly in a nearby major metro, and I don't see a ton of obese people there either. Rural children are 10-15 times more likely to obese, so I'm guessing that is probably a major factor as well.
25-35% obesity rates covers like 80% of states, so the US is just fat and getting fatter.
Unevenly distributed, but also statistical bias. Anywhere you go obese people are less likely to be out and about.
That's just cuz yo mama so fat the color wheel went all the way 'round her.
I'm a red dot in Colorado. 😕
Me too. Don't sweat it. Develop a good personality. Enjoy your life.
Yeah, I've got a great in-person personality. Still can stand to lose some pounds.
Another reason to get out of this state.
Well obesity according to what metric? The notoriously outdated and inaccurate BMI?
Nice, I live in insufficient data!
I also live in a green state and think of myself as a bit overweight. Visited family in MS, I'm a Mississippi 9 at least!
