Discuss Bonestructure's answer to: CDC : SOUTHERN FOLK ARE FAT ! According to ...

There are fat people in every state of the union. It's a bit of a serious problem, really. In the south, some of it results from the old days, when a person who was fat was considered to be doing well in life, as they obviously were able to eat well. Some of that attitude still exists there. You'll find that attitude in a lot of other countries as well. Which adds up to a lot of unhealthy, miserable people in this world. I don't care what anyone says. I used to be fat. If you're fat you're not happy in any way. You just get real good at lying to yourself and faking happiness so people will like you.
