A report by Public Health England has revealed that we all could do with losing a few pounds.

A hefty 63.8% of England’s adults are overweight or obese with a body mass index of 25+, and the pesky suburbs of London are doing little to help this.

Those dwelling in Camden and Hackney are skinny minnies in comparison, scoring 50.1% and 48.7% respectively.

Kudos go to Kensington and Chelsea, however. With an obesity rate of 45.9%, those guys sure know how to keep in shape… well most of them do anyway.

Professor Kevin Fenton of Public Health England said: “Overall health problems associated with being overweight or obese cost the NHS over £5 billion each year”.
