It depends on who's numbers you want to believe. Like most statistics, you can find pretty much any answer you wish, if you look hard enough. Two examples:
In January 2010, the New York Times reported "Nearly 34 percent of adults are obese, obese children tripled to 17 percent."
MedicineNet reports that " 63.1% of adults in the U.S. were either overweight or obese in 2009. That was a small but measurable increase from 62.2% the previous year." , citing a 'The Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index'
