Weight Loss

What is obesity?

Obesity is the medical term for when a persons' excess weight puts their health at a significant risk.

The condition develops when the intake of energy is greater than the expenditure in the body. We get most of our energy from the food we eat.

However, when energy is not used up through exercise, it is stored in the body as fat. This is an increasing concern in modern society as our jobs and spare time are becoming more sedentary.

Obesity poses significant threats to the health and well-being of an individual. Being obese can raise the risk of developing:

• Diabetes
• Heart disease
• High blood pressure
• Infertility
• Arthritis
• Cancer

As a society, we are increasingly living sedentary lifestyles both at work and at home.

How do I know if I am overweight or obese?

Obesity is generally determined by your body mass index (BMI). This number is a measurement of weight for your height. Though this method is not definitive, as someone with a high BMI may simply be very muscular.

The following are BMI for adults:

• 18.5 to 24.9 is a healthy weight
• 25 to 29.9 is overweight
• 30 to 39.9 is obese
• 40 or more is severely obese

To determine your BMI, you divide your weight in kilograms by your height in meters squared. Alternatively, you can use an online BMI calculator.

How can I lose weight?

Losing weight takes physical and mental determination. There is no miracle pill which will cause you to safely lose weight and get into shape without making changes to your lifestyle.

Weight loss pills are only effective when taken alongside a healthy, balanced, low fat diet.

Diet

Controlling what you eat and the portions you eat can have a positive effect on weight loss. Smaller portion sizes, healthy alternatives and discipline of when you should eat are healthy methods of improving your diet.

Simply eating a good balance of foods from all the various food groups day-to-day is proven as an effective way of losing weight.

Exercise

As stated above, not spending the energy you put into your body forces your body to store it as fat. You don't need to exercise every day or spend money on a gym membership to see results.

Small lifestyle changes can make a big difference. There are plenty of ways you can fit more exercise around your life.

Weight loss medication

Before taking weight loss medication, speak to your GP to ensure it is safe for you.

Weight loss medication, such as Xenical, work by blocking an enzyme (lipase) which breaks down fat in the body. As a result, the fat you ingest is passed through the body without being digested.

These weight loss pills have been clinically proven to be an effective aid in weight loss when taken alongside a healthy diet.
