    based on statistics, if you are 30% overweight from the 'norm' you are obese. If a few pounds overweight, you are 'heavy' or 'fat'.

    I prefer to be called "portly" thank you. :(

    There is a standardize medical chart based on your height, sex, and and age with a given range of what you should weigh. If you are 30% or more over the maximum weight given for your information, you are considered obese.

    The best way to identify Obesity is calculating one's BMI(Body mass index) which is calculated by dividing weight by square height.
    If the result is larger than 30kg/(m^2)it means you're suffering from obesity.


    Hope this helps.

    Yes thanks.

    your clothes wont fit

    Look in the mirror.
    Ask your sister.

    Just weigh & Measure yourself and you can work it out from the example


    Example:-Height 6ft. in Metres = 1.83mt. ( 1.83mt. Squared = 3.35 ) Weight = 82kg. Therefore 82 divided by 3.35 = BMI of 24.48

    Body Mass Index
    Less than 18 underweight
    18 - 24 Desirable weight
    25 - 29 Overweight
    30 - 40 Obese
    More than 40 Severely obese

    Simple way would be to go to your doctor and have him tell you what weight a person of your height should be. If you are larger than the average person of your height then you are obese.


    Good luck :)
