About 17 percent of children are overweight and about a third of adults are obese.
I was particularly concerned about seeing the increase in children, because we know that children who are overweight often become obese adults.
It's during childhood that our patterns often are set. Overweight adolescents often become obese adults.
I was surprised that we could see an upward trend in such a short time among overweight children and obese men.
We've seen an increase in obesity in men and we've seen an increase in overweight in both boys and girls.
