    Yeah, this is a data, inputs or measurement difference graph, not an apples to apples visualization. As bad as healthy and obesity in our country are and have been, this did not change by this much in 10 years. I’d guess either the data for 2012 was skewed low or 2022 high relative to the other.

      So would that mean that California has actually gotten fitter in that period of time, since it appears to be the only state with no visible change? (Edit: Michigan as well)
