Common Questions and Answers about Normal weight obese

Avatar m tn The Weight Tracker Stats uses BMI alone to determine what weight range a person is in. However, although BMI is accurate for some people, it is not accurate for everyone. Therefore, I suggest using other indicators as well, such as Body Fat Percentage, Waist to Height Ratio, Waist to Hip Ratio, and Waist to Chest Ratio. I also suggest allowing users to choose one or more of these to display in the Weight Tracker Stats. The following categories for each can be found at https://sites.google.

2028721 tn?1356682003 The BMI that I use placed you into 29.5 BMI range which is obese; you would be under 25 BMI which is considered "normal" at 175lbs. However BMI is only so good, it calculates an average and doesn't take into account the very muscular. So for an example Arnold Schwarzenegger would be obese; his amount of muscles make BMI unreliable. I suggest you have a talk with your Dr and ask if you need to loose more weight.
82861 tn?1333453911 5mths old and 120lbs that is not normal I havent heard of dog or any human in that matter putting on weight that fast!
14296391 tn?1434136829 Fibromyalgia symptoms are often linked to hypothyroidism and obesity/weight gain/inability to lose is a prime symptom of hypothyroidism, as is muscle aches/pain, weakness and fatigue/exhaustion... If your thyroid hormone levels haven't been tested, you should talk to your doctor about getting them tested to make sure that's not your problem, as adequate thyroid hormones can go a long way toward helping you reach a weight goal.
Avatar m tn I can also feel nodule underneath the skin (not sure if in fat of facia) and if these are pressed, the pain is tremendous, often radiating all over. I also have difficulty losing weight - I know every obese person says this, and I don't say I can't lose weight at all, but I do it much more slowly than others, whether the diet is Weight Watchers assorted type of Atkins low carb and no matter how much I exercise. Is it normal for fatty tissue to be painful?
Avatar n tn but will a higher dose help if a women is obese since I heard normal doses of Birth Control may be ineffective for obese women Obese being BMI of I believe 27 and above
976897 tn?1379167602 It seems the experts for heart disease in the UK have found a startling paradox. Obese patients seem to have a much better prognosis than those of normal weight, yet it isn't understood why. A study done resulted with the conclusion an obese person is far less likely to die within 7 years than someone with normal weight. It's totally the opposite to what they expected.
Avatar f tn Whether or not you're obese, depends on your age, as well as your height and weight. If you have a large frame (bone size) you might be able to carry more weight and not look fat to other people. You might also have a distorted view of your body.
Avatar f tn Of course you're supposed to gain weight.

Avatar f tn I never even thought of weight being my issue for ny epidural. I am over weight. My epi wore off with my 2nd.
Avatar f tn I was 140 pre pregnancy now I'm 180. At 31 weeks.
10389360 tn?1410823968 OK, so I've just used an online pregnancy BMI calculator and I got the result as being "obese"!! I'm 34 weeks, 5'7 and 192lbs. Was about 155-160 prepregnancy. I go to the gym 4-6 days per week, still fit in all the same clothes I've been wearing since early second trimester...I don't feel "obese" at all!! I've obviously gained some weight but always get complimented on how great I look.
Avatar n tn I doubt that any doctor would support a weight loss goal of 25 lbs. per month unless you would be morbidly obese. Most of the weight you would lose would be water weight anyway, and it would come back quickly. I recently consulted with a weight loss doctor who prescribed a sensible diet (moderately low carb) and the medication Adipex. That combination was magic for me. The diet resulted in rapid weight loss, and the prescribed medication made it easier for me to follow the diet.
Avatar f tn I am concerned about my fertility as my partner and i are hoping to start a family (once my weight is in the normal healthy range). Could my issues be down to a hormone imbalance? What can i do to get my periods regular again and increase my fertility? Am i not ovulating currently? Anyone else experienced this? Freaking out!
1931709 tn?1335833095 I am 21w5d and have not gained any weight. I eat and take my prenatals every day, but still no gain. My doc said the baby is growing and she is measuring right on for how far along I am. I was considered obese before I was pregnant (178lbs).... Do you think its bad that I haven't gained anything? This is my 4th pregnancy, and I gained with all the first 3.
Avatar m tn Friends I know last a couple days and theirs are very light, my ones friend is obese and the other normal weight I guess, so I don;t think weight is a problem. I'm not obese, just a little overweight and I'm 18 years old.
