This link should bring you to a CDC map which shows, via a series of changing color-coded maps of the USA, how obesity has increased from 1985 to 2007. Folks, we're in a heck of a lot of trouble.
Below, I've placed the 2008 Vs. 1986 maps for your review.
You can see how quickly the obesity epidemic has grown.
The CDC estimates the health care and related
social costs directly associated with fat and obese people,
at over $127,000,000 (BILLION) DOLLARS per year.
