Seattle residents are the fittest in the U.S., and Houston residents are fat tubs of lard according to Men’s Fitness magazine.

After surveying 50 cities and looking at 14 factors like Oprah watching, number of Krispy Kreme locales and how many different types of battered, deep-fried foods are available at county fairs (Houston has 118, including deep-fat fried chocolate covered stick-o-Parkay), it turns out Seattlites spend more time looking at themselves in the mirror, jumping from number 6 last year to the top spot.

Houston remained at #50 for the fourth time in five years, its residents celebrating by taking a dive into the historic Houston “swimming pool filled with heavy whipping cream” followed by a leisurely couch rest and a giant bag of Lays.
