As some of you know, I've been dieting for about 15 months now and have lost a total of 54 lbs. I personally think more Americans are trying to be health conscious about their weight and try to live healthier lifes.
I ran across this article about how America is being more obese. Actually, they aren't calling us obese anymore, but actually saying we are getting fatter.
Mississippi has the greatest percentage of overweight people; whereas, Colorado has the smallest.

I used to thing it was rude to say someone was obese. I mean, yes, they may be well over the "suggested" weight; however, obese is just an ugly word. I don't feel obese; however, based on my height and weight, I am.
I don't like; therefore, I'm doing my best to become normal.
