The studies conducted by in 1995, 2001 and 2004-2005 by Australian Bureau of Statistic (ABS) and refer to aldult aged 18 and over.
In 2004-2005 more than haflt of Australia adults or 7.4 million people aged over than 18 and were either obesity and overweight or obese , an increase form form 44% (5.4 million in adults) in 1995.
The rate of overweight in adults has increased dramatically form 32% in 1995 to 35% in 2004-2005. Meanswhile, the proportion of obeseity in adults has increased form 12 % TO 18% over the same period
The consequence of obesity and overweight are diffrent and varies, they are ranked form the premature dealth to the serious fatal elements which are dilibertely raising the adverse impacts on the quality of people's life.
In fact, obesity and overweight can immensely affect on people's physical activities as well as psychological thought, people's abilities are being restricted at thier workplace, or obese sufferer are finding difficult to engage in social activites and family actitives.

It is anticipated that at the current rate of increase, by 2020, 75% of the population will be overweight or obese and 65% of young Australians will be overweight or obese. This suggests a frightening progression of disease.
It is explicitly accpeted that obesity and overweight epidemic has inscreasingly linked to the potential risks of other fatal desease such as diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, heart attacked, hight rate of cholesterol ...... It is anticipated that the anual health care cost will be increase for treating diebetes and obesity epidemic.
The Australia Institute of Health and welfare's snapshot of the Nation's health showed that ablut 43% of population were physically inactive, unable to find at least 30 minutes a day to walk or clims stair
Current and future prevalence of overweight and/or obesity in adult
It is well anticipated that the increased in BMI result in the increased in the obese and overweight rate.
For adults aged 20+ years 83% of males and 67% of females are expected to be overweight and/or obese by 2025, up from 65% of males and 50% of females in 1995. This represents an absolute increase in prevalence of 0.6% per year for males and 0.8% per year for females.
According to the survey, It is anticipated that the increase in BMI will result in the high proportion of obese and overweight rate in adult between 0.4% to 0.8% , such that 2025, 75% of female and 25% of male will be overweight and obese.
The increase in prevalence of obesity and overweight mean BMI predicts will be a significant burden health care cost and prevention , treatment program.

Risk Factors for Health Topics Associated With ObesityAlong with being overweight or obese, the following conditions will put you at greater risk for heart disease and other conditions:
Risk Factors
For people who are considered obese (BMI greater than or equal to 30) or those who are overweight (BMI of 25 to 29.9) and have two or more risk factors, it is recommended that you lose weight. Even a small weight loss (between 5 and 10 percent of your current weight) will help lower your risk of developing diseases associated with obesity. People who are overweight, do not have a high waist measurement, and have fewer than two risk factors may need to prevent further weight gain rather than lose weight.
