Perhaps people are overweight, but I don’t grant any credibility to most of these weight charts. A guy with a big build might be classed as “obese” when he’s not.

A one-size-fits-all criteria is a scam.

“West Virginia had the nation’s highest drug-overdose death rate in 2015 and was named in a Wallethub study as the least happy state in America.”

“Wild, Wonderful, West Virginia” is being replaced by the “Fat Unhappy Junkies of West Virginia.

The price of food in Europe is staggeringly high.

$13 for a little watermelon in Finland.

$64 for soup and salad in Denmark.

No wonder the Euros are thin.

Another bitchy article from the UK about our “weight” or our “guns”. Yawn.

Damned “central planning socialists”.

There are an awful lot of chunky, square-built low center of gravity women in Massachusetts. Matter of fact, all of New England is filled with them, the women just seem to metamorphose into that at age 50, then cut their hair short, stop wearing makeup and start sprouting hair on their faces.

So, I disbelieve that particular stat. Unless, that is, their poor long-suffering husbands getting skinny due to stress and having their food snatched away from them isn’t causing a statistical wash. They’re as a group a mean bunch, those chunky plain old women of New England.

“Alabama, Arkansas, Iowa, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma and West Virginia all have adult obesity rates of at least 35 percent”

By empirical observation Chicago must be about 50%.

Just a reminder to everybody that my next Weigh-In will be at 10 AM on September 28 sat the Sav A Lot Nutrition Center in Margate, FL. My last weigh-in was on August 17 in which I lost 31 pounds. I think everybody will be quite surprised with the next results. My goal is to lose 100 lbs total so I can go on the Steve Kane Radio Show (longest running radio show in Florida history) cruise to the Caribbean next year.

My wife wouldn't let me go on the cruise this year because she thought all that shipboard food would kill me. Therefore she demanded that I lose 100 pounds in order to go on the next cruise.

You can see the August 17 weigh-in recorded by Steve Kane Show co-host Brian Craig featured in this DOCUMENTARY about the Sav A Lot Nutrition center. When I hit the 100 lb weight loss I will have an important message for all the peoples of the world (No, not a warning to stay about from the moon Europa).

Oh, and you can see my secret on easily losing all this weight in the documentary. BTW, the Sept. 28 weigh will be live-casted on YouTube by Brian Craig.

Looks like a safe distribution. The more centralized concentration of weight and the weight of the Rockies in the west is what is probably keeping the east coast from tipping into the sea.
