Obesity isn't a disease in itself, it is the accumulation of excess body fat and it can be resolved. Obese people do run a higher risk of heart disease and diabetes which are a cause of obesity

One of the important factors surrounding a person being described as obese is to find and understand the root cause for their bad eating behaviour. It could be that the person is overweight and over eating due to being clinically depressed in which case the aid of a doctor or psychiatrist might be a good idea.

Through this site we are going to assume that you are overweight or obese due to simply enjoying your food too much and over indulging in the nice sweet tasting foods that we all love but are oh so bad for our waistlines.

If you feel that any kind of medical condition could be an underlying cause for your excess weight then please seek professional medical advice before continuing on this site.
