I was by far healthier when I worked in Huntington than after living in Philly.

Every other corner in this town has a heart attack on a torpedo roll or half baguette as a specialty.

I both resent and disagree with APs findings. There is NO way that Huntington is fatter than Charleston. I've seen Huntington. They cant hold a candle to us! I am going to do my best to encourage Charlestonians to drop those salads and eat more biscuits & gravy. Tudors is ready and willing to help us out!



I also offer this proof that Charleston deserves to be number 1:

Huntington, W.Va., home to highest percentage of obese; also tops in diabetes, loss of teeth

Nearly half the adults in Huntington's five-county metropolitan area are obese — an astounding percentage, far bigger than the national average in a country with a well-known weight problem.

Huntington leads in a half-dozen other illness measures, too, including heart disease and diabetes. It's even tops in the percentage of elderly people who have lost all their teeth (half of them have).
