weight chart overweight obese

I have heard that before but I think they are referring to very very large women instead. I am also considered obese on the bmi chart and I could stand to lose some weight yes but I wouldn't look at someone my size and say they were obese.

Hello, I read/heard that for women that are obese with a large BMI, the birth control pill is ineffective. If this is true, should we talk to our doctor about having a lrger dose of birth control as the regular.low dose ones may not be good enough?

is it ok to try to maintain and not gain too much weight during pregnancy if you were overweight before? I read if you're overweight you don't have to gain as much weight.

I felt the baby move the first time around 16-18 weeks my second (now) I felt at 12 weeks. I dont have any advice for the weight I'm not really overweight.. I am the biggest I've ever been but im still under 190 pregnant..

I'm 17, 5 ft 7 and I weigh 13 st 5(ish). My bmi is 29.something... I' m classed as overweight. I'm 9 weeks pregnant, my weight is really getting me down. Are there other ladies out there that feels horrible about their weight?

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.

Didn't get lost. Scroll down. I gave a response on Oct 2. This was it- Take him to the vet. They need to be able to see him physically to determine if he is overweight, by how much, and what needs to be done. It is hard to say without seeing him, because even dogs of a certain breed can be bigger than the standard and not be overweight. For example, my Min Pin has a much larger build than most Min Pins, so if she weighed what those teeny tiny Min Pins weigh, she'd be under weight.

My granddaughter is 10 and extremly overweight. Since she was born she never felt full. She doesn't eat sweets and drinks mostly water. She also still wets the bed. We have tried limiting her fluids, making sure she goes to the bathroom before bed, and trying different amounts of sleep time. Nothing works. Her pediatrician doesn't seem worried about either problem, but both are really starting to affect her.

INFORMATION A good way to assess your weight is to calculate your body mass index (BMI). Your BMI estimates whether you are at a healthy weight. Being overweight puts strain on your heart and can lead to serious health problems. These problems include type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, varicose veins, and other chronic conditions. More than 300,000 lives could be saved in the United States each year if everyone maintained a healthy weight!

I'm pretty over weight and my first was 7-7 my second was 8-7 this is my third and measuring right on schedule

I am overweight and pregnant with my 3rd baby. I've been keeping a close eye on how much weight I gain because I don't want to get gestational diabetes. Diabetes is very strong in my family so I try to take it easy. So far, I'm 16 weeks 3 days and I've only gained 3 pounds.I also have Multiple Sclerosis so I'm totally monitoring my weight. I'm trying not to gain more than 20 pounds. I know i can do it. I did it with my 2 oldest kids.

I think all the things they say about being overweight while pregnant aren't really true and basically apply to every single lady that's pregnant.

that depends on how much your start weight is. if you are obese, you can shed 50 pounds in 3 month, with a healthy diet and lots of exercise. However, if you are only overweight, it will be very difficult to lose this amount i such a short time and still be healthy. If you don't have the money to go to the gym I advise you to get at least a fitness assessment. these cost around Euro 20. a professional can draw up a fitness regime for you to take home.

re just making better choices and good for you for doing so! But I would day look at a bmi chart find out what is a normal healthy weight and add 40 lbs to that and if you stay above that number you should be fine and then when baby pops you lose that 40 and voila. I am not overweight but I had am extra 15 lbs still from my first baby and the doc only wants me to gain 25-30 this time because I had more weight than I should.

Hi, I’m currently 5’5 and 345lbs when I got the implant put in I was about 245lb. Clearly I’ve gained weight haha. I’ve had the nexplanon implant for about it a year and half. I recently had unprotected sex and I read that the implant may not be effective in obese women. Does anyone know? Is my implant working still? I read that in obese women it may have to be taken out earlier than the normal 3yrs. Like I’ve said mine is about a year and a half old.

I hate when doctors say that i gained 40lbs with my first and I'm currently at 12lbs and I'm 22 weeks and all my Dr days is to make healthy choices but you want what you want so don't stress I think your doing great the normal weight gain is 25-30 lbs. Best of luck!

Has anyone started out overweight and lost weight, healthily, simply by eating healthy and exercising more? I'm honestly obese and want to have the healthiest pregnancy and was curious about the results anyone else got. Thanks.

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.

Bulimics can be underweight, normal weight, slightly overweight, moderately overweight or obese. They eat large quantities of food in an out of control fashion in a short period of time. They put a lot of their self-esteem on their body image. They have a history of at least 3 months of binge purging behavior. I hope this helps answer your question.

Um NO! I can't believe a doctor would tell you this. Even obese women are given the green light to gain 11 to 20 lbs during pregnancy. Infact, if you look over on the Maternal & Child Forum, peekawho just posted the most recent pregnancy weight gain stats/chart. And it says the thing I just wrote about the obese thing. You might want to think about getting another doctor.

So, I am considered obese to be honest. I had my first ob appointment today. She didn't try to hear the heartbeat because she didn't think she could since I am fat and there is more tissue there. She recommended me for a dating ultrasound. I go on Monday for that. I am sad that she couldn't do it but kinda excited for Monday. But how am I supposed to drink 32oz of water by 11 and not pee after 11? That is going to be a killer!!

25-35 depending on your weight before pregnancy is average. Obese women can only gain roughly 15 pounds the whole trimester.

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.

The weight they have for us are statistics..

It’s used to predict whether we are underweight, normal, overweight or obese. There is a possibility that we are clustered in a particular category and may reveal something. To measure BMI, it’s (kg/m*m) or your weight in kilogram divided by height in meters squared. If you don’t know, just use BMI link below. For instances if I’m 94.5 kg and 1.96 m then it’s 94.5/(1.96*1.96) = 24.6. My BMI would be 24.6. So I’ would choose B) between 18.5 and 25. https://www.heartfoundation.org.

Well, I'm obese, i didn't think that because of my weight, I could get pregnant and I did paste year, even tho I had a miscarriage at 17 weeks, but it wasn't because of that, it was because I have fibroids, and a week ago I found out I'm pregnant again, but just take care of yourself, and try eating healthy because I developed diabetes in my first trimester, that's why I'm taking better care of myself this time, so good luck with your pregnancy
