What Is The Morbidly Obese Definition And Does It Matter

Morbidly obese definition literally means that the excess weight a person is carrying could be a significant factor in causing their premature death. You are unlikely to be classified as morbidly obese unless your body mass index is about 35 or over.

Some doctors believe that this figure is too high and that it should be 30.

This is because the risks posed to your health by carrying excess pounds increase significantly when your #BMI goes over 25.

But at the end of the day it doesnt really matter what figure the doctor puts on it, the fact remains that you are putting yourself in extreme danger by carrying all this excess weight.

You know you need to slim down and tone up. You probably even know how you could tackle your own situation but for some reason you are not motivated to start.

Well that needs to change. You need to take control of your body and get it back into shape. You probably weren't always overweight.

The first thing you need to do is persuade yourself you can do this by writing down some short term goals. Obviously the long term goal is to get your BMI under 25 but that isn't going to happen very quickly.

So you need to put in place a series of short term targets that are realistic and achievable. AS you hit each one you will be further motivated to continue your journey.

Writing them down will make them appear more real and will also get your subconscious mind working on how you are going to achieve things.

Now you have decided what you are going to achieve, you need to start working on achieving it. You need to keep a food diary which details everything you eat and drink.

The reason for this is to find out when your weak points are happening i.e. do you crave sugary foods at a certain time of day or associate them with a particular habit.

For example a lot of people will associate watching TV with eating popcorn or chips. So you may have to give up the TV in addition to the snacks at least until you break the connection.

When you are trying to lose a lot of weight the worst thing you can do is to adopt a faddy diet. These diets do not work in the long term and usually end up making you feel deprived or even physically ill.

The only way to lose excess pounds is to increase your physical activity while reducing your intake of calories. So we need to reduce portion sizes and also make sure we are eating the right types of food.

Fruit and vegetables will become your new best friends washed down with plenty of water.

At the end of the day the morbidly obese definition is not important. What matters is getting your bmi to a healthy range while keeping you happy and content during the process. Nobody wants you to be miserable.
