do you have updated 2009 flowchart ?
(May, 4, 2005) -- It's no coincidence: Where you live determines how many fast-food restaurants are in your community, and that turns out to be a pretty good predictor of how overweight your neighbors are, report University of Hawaii at Manoa researchers.
They crunched state-by-state numbers for obesity and fast-food restaurants; here are the worst and the best states for your waist, according to their data.
The top 5 states with the lowest number of obese residents are marked by an asterisk (*), and the 5 states with the highest amount of obese residents are marked by a pound sign (#). Alaska is not included in the list because of its extremely large size and low population density in comparison to all the other states.
