Why Are Midwestern Women So Fat? Serious Question.?

I have noticed that practically EVERY woman over 40 in the midwest is obese. Not just a little overweight, but obese. Now dont bash me and say that men are the same. Yes some older men men are just as fat, but there are Far more obese women. I'd say 60% of midwestern women are at least 50 lbs overweight vs 25% for midwestern men. Now when I visit other states such as SC, NC, Florida, TN, heck even michigan, this is not that case and the women are far less obese, but in Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, its insane how many fat women there are.
