WASHINGTON, D.C. -- In the U.S., the adult obesity rate is 27.7% thus far in 2014. This compares with the 27.1% average in 2013 -- the highest annual rate Gallup and Healthways have measured since beginning to track obesity in 2008.
Based on self-reports of height and weight, 3.6% of American adults were morbidly obese in 2012. This is on par with 3.4% in 2011 and 3.5% in 2009 and 2010. Another 16.7% of adults fell into obese class I in 2012, and another 5.9% were in obese class II. The percentage of Americans in each of these groups has remained similar over the past five years.
