…I wanted to take a few moments to share some good news, and also some bad news. That might be a little understated. The good, is really good. The bad, is really bad.

First. Barnes and Nobel has officially signed on to carry “The Gospel According to Chubby” You can pick it up on-line or in-store. More often than not, you may not find it on their shelf at first. But if your local B&N store is out of stock, they will quickly order a copy for you and have it to your store waiting for pickup with in a few days!

That was the good news. Now, the bad news.

A recent study by Robert Wood Johnson Foundation has revealed that our thinnest state in 2010 (Colorado with and obesity rate of 19.1) is larger than our fattest state was in 1991. (Mississippi with an obesity rate of 15.7)

This means in less than two decades our country has become so overweight that our strongest fitness ambassador is now worse off than our weakest.

I am normally a man of many words… but these truths have left me speechless. I would love to hear your thoughts.
