U.S. Obesity Trends... Alarmed Yet?

A striking graphic representation of the growing epidemic of obesity in the U.S.  Colorado was the only state left with obesity rates < 20% up until this year and unfortunatly they've now joined the ranks. Also take note of the "red" states centralized in the South, more then 30% of residents have a BMI over 30 and are classified as obese (these graphics do not include those overweight, BMI > 25).
