Derek,

NYers are thin because they walk.

Counter-intuitive, but rural means drive and urban means walk. I suspect that the bad air in urban centers has some ill-effect and the sedentary nature of rural climes has other issues beyond weight gain.

Now why do North Eastern cities have walking and Western cities not? Remember its not just Houston - no one walks in LA :-)

I suspect being thin from surgery has other health risks!
