If you would look at the list which CapnAwsome posted you would also notice that these states also include most of the poorest, most conservative and dumbest states in the US.
Whilest I do see a conection with the most religious states being the dumbest and conservative - I would argue that the obesity in those states is the result of the stupidity and conservatism.
So in the end - well yes - a bit the result of being religious - but not directly.
Low IQ has also been linked to both obesity and religiosity. Our politically correct society likes to ignore both of those.
