As the presidential candidates bicker over whether Americans are 'better off' than they were four years ago, there's one thing we know for sure: they are a lot heavier.
Obesity has grown within every age group, from young adults to seniors, by more than 2 per cent since 2008, according to a new Gallup survey.
Middle-aged men and women and seniors experienced the biggest jump in weight over the last four years, with more than 30 per cent of those age groups now considered overweight.
