BMI is how much you weigh (in kilograms) divided by the square of how tall you are (in meters2). This allows us assess whether someone is overweight or obese. Naturally, someone who is taller should weigh more than one who is shorter, and BMI helps us to keep that perspective. There are six generally recognized classifications of weight:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Underweight<\/td>\n<td>BMI less than 18.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Normal<\/td>\n<td>BMI 18.5 \u2013 24.9<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Overweight<\/td>\n<td>BMI 25-29.9<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Obesity Class 1<\/td>\n<td>BMI 30-34.9<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Obesity Class 2<\/td>\n<td>BMI 35-39.9<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Obesity Class 3 (morbid obesity)<\/td>\n<td>BMI 40 or greater<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>For a person who is 5 feet 5 inches tall:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Underweight<\/td>\n<td>&lt;_\u00a0110 pounds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Normal<\/td>\n<td>111 \u2013 149 pounds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Overweight<\/td>\n<td>150 \u2013 180 pounds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Obesity Class 1<\/td>\n<td>181 \u2013 210 pounds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Obesity Class 2<\/td>\n<td>211 \u2013 240 pounds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Obesity Class 3<\/td>\n<td>&gt; 240 pounds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h4>Overweight &#038; Obesity Health Consequences<br \/>\n<\/h4>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #000000;\">\n<td>Cardiovascular<\/td>\n<td>Cancer<\/td>\n<td>Other<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Coronary heart disease<\/td>\n<td>Endometrial<\/td>\n<td>Diabetes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Diabetes<\/td>\n<td>Breast<\/td>\n<td>Liver\/Gall Bladder<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>High Cholesterol<\/td>\n<td>Colon<\/td>\n<td>Sleep Apnea<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Osteoarthritis<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Abnormal Menses \/ Infertility<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Varicose Veins<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h4>The Cause?<br \/>\n<\/h4>\n<p>\t\tOverweight &#038; Obesity have been increasing rapidly across the population.

Foods that are high in fat, sugar, and processed carbohydrates are calorie dense. If you only want to eat 200 Calories of these foods, you cannot eat much of them, because they have lots of calories in a small amount. Foods that are high in water and fiber and low in fat are not calorie dense. If you only want to eat 200 Calories of these foods, you can eat a lot of them, because they don\u2019t have many calories in the same amount. For example, for 200 Calories, you can only eat 28g of butter, 41g of Dorito\u2019s chips, 41g of Snickers, 50g of saltine crackers, 51g of cheddar cheese, 52g glazed donuts, and 75g of cheeseburger. But, for 200 Calories, you can eat 90g flax bread, 290g grapes, 308g cooked corn, 385g apples, 553g of honeydew, 570g carrots, 588g broccoli, and 1425g celery.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #000000;\">\n<td>Foods<\/td>\n<td>Calories per Pound<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Oils<\/td>\n<td>3,900<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Potato Chips \/ French Fries<\/td>\n<td>2,600<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Meat<\/td>\n<td>2,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Cheese<\/td>\n<td>1,600<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>White Bread<\/td>\n<td>1,300<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Chicken &amp; Turkey (white meat)<\/td>\n<td>900<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Fish<\/td>\n<td>800<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Eggs<\/td>\n<td>700<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Whole Grains (wheat &amp; rice)<\/td>\n<td>600<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Starchy Vegetables (potatoes &amp; corn)<\/td>\n<td>350<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Beans<\/td>\n<td>350<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Fruits<\/td>\n<td>250<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Green Vegetables<\/td>\n<td>100<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>You can eat more food and lose weight if you switch to eating foods that have a low calorie density. The feeling of satiety (feeing like you have consumed a sufficient amount of food) after you eat is highly dependent upon stretch receptors in the stomach. As you eat food and the stomach is stretched by that food, it signals to the brain that you have had enough. If you eat low calorie dense foods (like salad), you can fill the stomach, trigger the stretch receptors, feel satisfied, but you have only eaten a few calories. However, you can eat the same \u201camount\u201d of calorie dense food (like French Fries, pizza, and meat), fill the stomach, trigger the stretch receptors, feel satisfied, but you have eaten lots of calories.<\/p>\n<h4>Simple Advice For Weight Loss<br \/>\n<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Ask yourself the following 3 questions.
