Band 7+: The bar chart shows the percentage of adults who were overweight or obese (too fat or much too fat) in one country from 1965 to 2015. The pie chart shows the proportion of adults who were overweight, obese or severely obese in 2015. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The bar chart illustrates the proportion of adults with obesity and overweighting in one specific country between 1965 and 2015, while the pie chart demonstrates the rate of overweight, obese or severely obese adults in the year 2015.

Overall, there was a tremendous surge of the percentage of adults that were overweight during the period. It is also noticeable that the highest and lowest rates of weight range of the adults in 2015 were obese and severely obese, respectively.

Regarding the given statistics, the rate of overweight and obese adults accounted for around 46% in 1965. This figure was stable and had a minority change from 1965 to 1985. 10 years later, the percentage steadily increased and reached a peak of over 70% in 2015, which was the highest rate in the entire surveyed period.

Turning to the remaining categories, there were only 6% of adults that had severe obesity, whilst the percentage of obese adults was roughly sixfold than that, at 39%, in 2015. In addition to this similarity, it was the highest recorded figure. Furthermore, the proportion of healthy/ underweight and overweight people were nearly identical, at 29% for healthy adults and 31% for overweight adults.
