Description

[The spreadsheet ](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/population-bmi-classification-london.xls)contains regional level obesity trend data from the the HSE, BMI data from Understanding Society, and adjusted prevalence of underweight, healthy weight, overweight, and obesity by local authority from the Active People Survey. Understanding Society data shows the percentage of the population aged 10 and over by their Body Mass Index Classification, covering underweight, normal weight, overweight, and three classes of obesity. Questions on self-reported height and weight were added to the Sport England Active People Survey (APS) in January 2012 to provide data for monitoring excess weight (overweight including obesity, BMI ≥25kg/m2) in adults (age 16 and over) at local authority level for the Public Health Outcomes Framework (PHOF). Health Survey for England (HSE) results at a national level are available on the [NHS Information Centre website](http://www.ic.nhs.uk/statistics-and-data-collections/health-and-lifestyles-related-surveys/health-survey-for-england). [Other NHS indicators](http://www.ic.nhs.uk/statistics-and-data-collections/health-and-lifestyles/obesity) on obesity are available for Strategic Health Authorities (SHA).
