    Washington, D.C.- The results are in from a new obesity study conducted in America, and the results are discouraging.

    In 37 different states out of 50, Americans are getting heavier and more obese than they were a year ago, and the picture is not a pretty one for the majority of Americans.

    The obesity rates went up in 37 different states, and it went down in exactly zero states.

    The state in America that has the least amount of obesity is again Colorado, who has about 18.9 percent of its citizens that are thought to be obese, compared to the states with the highest percentage of its residents that are overweight.

    The three states that are again on the list with the highest rates of obesity are Alabama, West Virginia and Mississippi, and all three were at or near the top of rates of obesity in the results a year ago.

    Obesity in the USA is becoming a problem that is rising higher and higher, and it is a problem that has become an increasing health issue.

    This latest report is the fifth annual report and each year the results are more and more discouraging.

    The levels of obesity are gaining destructive force, and threatens to overwhelm the medical facilities around the country.
