Do you live in one of America's fattest states?

New data ranking state-by-state obesity rates is out today, and despite some modest improvements, the statistics are still pretty grim.

According to the report conducted by the Trust for America’s Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, adult obesity rates now exceed 35 percent in four states and 30 percent in 25 states. What’s more, obesity rates are above 20 percent in every single state across the country.

To put that in perspective, the authors point out that in 1991, no state had a rate above 20 percent.

Colorado had the lowest obesity rate in 2015 at 20.2 percent.
