[Editorial] Obesity and diabetes in 2017: a new year

On Dec 27, 2016, in the midst of festive overindulgences—and burgeoning resolutions of good health—Public Health England (PHE) released its latest analysis from the Health Survey for England. The report supports the re-launch of the One You: New Year, New You campaign, and focused on the behaviour and health of adults in the UK aged from 40 to 60 years. Worryingly, and yet unsurprisingly, the data show that between 1991–93 and 2011–13 the proportion of overweight or obese individuals has increased from 66·7% to 76·8% for men, and from 54·8% to 63·4% for women.
