Obesity in the U.S. is leveling off?

That may be so according to a study by the Trust for America’s Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. But it's still pretty bad. One-third of American adults and one in six children are now obese.   Nine of the 11 states with the highest obesity rates are in the South. States in the Northeast and the West had lower obesity rates. West Virginia is the worst, 37.7% of the residents are obese. Mississippi was second at 37.3 percent and Alabama and Arkansas were tied for third at 35.7 percent. 25 states had obesity rates above 30 percent. In 2000, no state had a rate above 25 percent.
