Fattest Cities in America

Hi All,

So, Miami has won the "Fattest City in America" contest, according to Men's Health Magazine. Where does your city fit in? (look below)

Some of the results were surprising. I live in Tampa, #23 on the Top Fittest, I grew up in Kansas City, #25 on the Top Fattest, and I'm moving back to NYC, #5 on the Top Fattest (the shocker for me).

There should be a list for the top cities for eating disorders and recovery.

Hmmm...I currently live in one of the fattest cities & I've previously lived in others on that list (6, 15, 17, 20, and 24). But I've also lived in two of the fittest (12 & 19). Interestingly, my ED was at its worst when I lived in the 12th fittest city. Coincidence?

I live in a small town in the South at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains and it's not listed. But I call this place the "Land of Lard"! Guess where the lard ends up? :)
