The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has reported that some 39.8 percent of adults in the United States are obese, based on data through 2016. For women, this breaks down as follows: Age group (years) Percent considered overweight or obese Percent considered obese 20-34 59.6 34.8 35-44 67.7 43.4 45-54 69.5 42.9 55-64 74.5 48.2 65-74 75.6 43.5 75 and up 67.4 32.7 As of 2016, the average weights for women in different age groups were : Age group (years) Average weight (pounds) 20-39 167.6 40-59 176.4 60 and older 166.5 How do Americans compare to the rest of the world?
