eMJA: Overweight and obesity in Australia

To the Editor: Australians are fatter than they have ever been before. The prevalence of overweight and obesity (body mass index ≥ 25.0 kg/m2, or waist circumference > 80 cm for women or > 94 cm for men) in Australian adults is approaching 60% for both sexes and has more than doubled in the past 25 years.1
