Colorado Still 'Skinniest' State In U.S.

DENVER (CBS4) ― Once again Coloradans remain the "skinniest" in the United States, according to the fifth annual "F as in Fat" report.

Colorado is the only state in the nation in which fewer than one in five adults are obese.

Still some 18 percent of adults are obese in Colorado and that number has risen for the second year in a row.

Mississippi had the highest rate with 32 percent of adults considered obese.
