The Stats

Two-thirds of adults and nearly one in three children are overweight or obese.
The prevalence of obesity in the U.S. more than doubled (from 15% to 34%) among adults and more than tripled (from 5% to 17%) among children and adolescents from 1980 to 2008.
An obese teenager has over a 70% greater risk of becoming an obese adult.
Obesity is more common among non-Hispanic black teenagers (29%) than Hispanic teenagers (17.5%) or non-Hispanic white teenagers (14.5%).
