Objective: Obesity remains one of the most important modifiable risk factors for the prevention of Type 2 diabetes and its related comorbid conditions. The aim of this study was to examine trends in average body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and obesity prevalence among adults with and without Type 2 diabetes. Methods: Information on BMI and waist circumference among 4162 adults with and 40,376 adults without Type 2 diabetes was obtained from the National Health and Examination Surveys completed during years 1976-2006. Mean BMI, waist circumference and prevalence of total obesity (BMI >= 30 kg/m(2)) and obesity stage III (BMI >= 40 kg/m(2)) were determined by survey periods after adjustment for the survey period weights and age standardization to the US 2000 Census. Means and proportions between first and last survey periods were compared using Z scores. Results: During this 20-year period, mean BMI increased from 29.2 kg/m(2) to 34.2 kg/m(2) among adults with Type 2 diabetes and from 25.2 kg/m(2) to 28.1 kg/m(2) among adults without diabetes (P
