You're actually both the 3rd and the 6th fattest state. CalorieLab uses the same data source as as the CDC, but we average the previous three years to get larger samples and smooth out statistical fluctuations. In their recent announcement, the CDC used just the most recent 2007 data.

Since your state appears to be rising relative to other states, the CDC shows you higher than CalorieLab does. If the 2007 data is not a 1-year aberation, and you really are getting fatter at a faster pace than other states, the CalorieLab rankings will reflect this in the next year or two.
