Being overweight or obese is linked to a wide range of diseases, most commonly: type 2 diabetes, hypertension, some cancers, heart disease, stroke, liver disease. Obesity can also be associated with poor psychological and emotional health, and poor sleep. Obese adults may also be more likely to suffer from stigma which may impact on their self-esteem.

This included 26% of men and 29% of women in England who were obese. 2% of men and 4% of women were morbidly obese. Being overweight but not obese is more common among men (41%) than women (30%).
