As part of its worldwide campaign to fight the flab, WeightLossBuddy.com, the free website that helps people lose weight and unhealthy lifestyles, has challenged America’s seven fattest states – Alabama, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Mississippi, Tennessee and West Virginia – to get on the buddy system.

“It’s time for America to wake up about obesity, and we aim to shake things up by offering WeightLossBuddy.com premium memberships to the governors of these states to call attention to this weighty problem,” says Joey Dweck, WeightLossBuddy.com founder. “Our challenge – to buddy up – makes it easy for these states to change their images. Ultimately, everyone – the governors, the residents and the country – gains big even with small losses.”

Scientific studies have shown that people who buddy up to diet and exercise lose weight and keep it off, and WeightLossBuddy.com’s premium memberships make it easier to drop those extra pounds. “It is essential that residents of these states get with the program,” Dweck says. “This is not only about self-image. It is about the image of this country.”

WeightLossBuddy.com’s Premium Service includes an advanced version of the site’s free Diet-Tracking feature that will allow Premium members to “track meals” using a database of 10,000 foods, including a fast-food lookup feature.
