Latest findings show everything might just be bigger in Texas, including its residents.
Go to Google Maps, type in "United States," and you'll be reminded of just how big Texas is. But what you can't see is the size of the state's citizenry: Five Lone Star cities are among the nation's fattest, with Corpulent Christi at the top.
To arrive at our rankings, we calculated the percentage of people who are overweight, the percentage with type 2 diabetes, the percentage who haven't left the couch in a month (CDC Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System); the money spent on junk food (Bureau of Labor Statisticshttp://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/2_bing_11pxw.gif (http://health.msn.com/weight-loss/articlepage.aspx?cp-documentid=100257787>1=31036#)); and finally, the number of people who ate fast food nine or more times in a month (Mediamark Research).
Want fries with that? You might not after you learn the truth about your menu order (http://eatthis.menshealth.com/slideshow/truth-about-your-menu-order?cm_mmc=MSN-_-The%20Fattest%20Cities-_-Article-_-ETNT%20The%20Truth%20About%20Your%20Menu%20Order' target=).
Now for the good news: The folks at The Biggest Loser have decided to help Texas lose its tonnage. Tune in and watch America's second-largest state shrink before your eyes.
