Fit vs. Obese

Coloradans are proud of ranking year-after-year as the state with the fittest population. However, the obesity rate here has doubled since 1995, according to a non-profit called "Live Well Colorado." Live Well says nearly 25% of those making less than $25,000 a year are obese, while only 16% of those making above $75,000 a year are obese.

Candy and chips anyone? How about ice cream and donuts?

Well considering I'm probably close to the obese side of the coin I'll just say hey I really do like candy better than broccoli so sue me, ha.
