Poor people often can't afford healthy food and a lot of starch. No surprise that our poorest states have the fattest people.

When I was twenty I weighed 115 pounds. That was a long time ago. Right now I weigh 114......Same weight as way back when. The most I ever weighed was 160 when I was pregnant with my son.

Wherever you go there once was a forest.
Plant & protect Danny's trees for life.
Trees are the lungs of the earth.
