obesity

What does science say about where you should be, and do you have some work to do or should you be more confident?

If the map is to be taken at face value, Idaho ranks 23rd least obese.

When it comes to being obese though, what state is the most obese, what state is the least, and how does Idaho compare to other states?

What city is home to the most obese people, which city is the least, and how does Boise stack up?

While there is a ton of eating to be had in the next month, and weight will be gained across the country, which state is the most obese and how does Idaho compare?

We aren't doing all that bad in the grand scheme of things.

If you're curious about how the number on your scale compares to others across the country, this will feed your need to know.

Five schools in the Magic Valley will share thousands of dollars to promote healthy eating for their students. The Idaho Dairy Council in partnership with the Fuel Up to Play 60 announced the area schools will get a combined $18,577 in grants

I saw a comment in an article on Only In Your State that Idaho ranked high among states in the US when it comes to obesity. But, when I did some digging, the stats that I found seem to tell an entirely different story.

Childhood obesity is certainly a problem. The percentage of children between 6 and 11 who are obese in the United States has tripled in the last 30 years and now stands at 20 percent.
