Are New Yorkers Getting Fatter?

Studies about people's weight always seems to amaze me.

A new health department analysis says that New Yorkers are getting fatter and that obesity and diabetes are growing faster in the city than in the rest of the country. But generally, Manhattanites have fared better than residents of other boroughs.

About one in four New Yorkers is overweight. And from 2002 to 2004, according to the analysis, New Yorkers collectively gained 10 million pounds.

Where do they really get this info from? I guess anthing goes to start a debate.
