Poll: New Yorkers say they are fat drunks.

Yay, I'm not alone! From the NY Post:

Turns out that many New Yorkers think they're a bunch of drunks who love to overeat and smoke, according to a poll released today.

The survey by the Siena College Research Institute found that 44 percent of state residents claim they are overweight, while a whopping 63 percent have chugged down an alcoholic drink over the last year.

As a result, only 28 percent of New Yorkers believe they are in good health and at the correct weight.

"When it comes to health, nutrition and exercise, knowing and doing just don't match up," said Don Levy, director of the Siena College Research Institute.
