deeznutz1245: Connecticut: our chimps are stealin yo' faces.; +483|6797|Connecticut

http://health.msn.com/health-topics/art … ;GT1=31036

Connecticut is ranked #7 in the United States. Only 2% of our population is considered obese. New England overall is fairly healthy considering most of our states are on the top ten. I am not sure if there are similar studies done elsewhere in the world, but if you find one post it in here and let us know where you rank. I am an exercise nut so I like to see in the day of fast food and fat fucks some of us are still staying fit and healthy.

New Zealand:
25% obesity rating. We have a lot of McDs, BK etc here, but also a shitload of fish'n'chip shops and meat pies. Not to mention the binge drinking thing.

I couldn't find any binge drinking studies, so a wiki link will have to do:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binge_drinking#New_Zealand
According to that, 37% of tertiary students engaged in binge drinking (NZ standard is 8 drinks in one session not 4-6 like other countries) at least once in the past week. If you used a common world definition, this would rise, and if you took out the large number of foreign students this would rise again. We binge drink a lot more than the US, (and most other western countries) and its a real problem.

(I only had 13-14 beers last friday, will usually chop 24, a dozen 8% bourbon RTDs, or a big bottle of spirits)

Just an observation - Most of the northern liberal leaning states are the healthiest. Most of the southern conservative leaning states are the unhealthiest.

Food for thought (no pun intended).

Don't side with those elitist new englanders

Maryland's not in the top 10 or the bottom 10 so whatever. I don't see an abundance of obese people and I don't see an abundance of shredded people.

Because the stereotypical southerner cares more about what they do with their body than what they put in it.

I thought CA would be in the bottom 10, but I guess not. Too many people getting lipo so they can go out to the beach and look fabulous.

MN is #4. Sweet. It's hard to tell here, we have to wear so many layers to keep warm. The farmers must skew it a bit.
