"There's so much steak (in Wyoming)! Problem is, you had to slaughter the cow yourself, and that kind of activity really keeps pounds off," the author joked.

North Dakota, South Dakota and Alaska rounded out their picks for the worst states to get fat in.

Lousiana, Texas, Pennsylvania and Tennessee round out the five best states for fleshy food lovers.
