Obesity and Metabolism Disorders

Could be numerous things you need to be seen by a Dr. or nurse at a clinic or Hospital.

It would be highly unlikely. In any case, never exceed or increase your prescription without first consulting your doctor.

• Eating processed food (ie microwaveable food, reconstructed ham, etc)
• Not eating enough fruit and vegetables or unrefined carbohydrates
• Drinking too much alcohol
• Eating junk food
• Eating larger portions of food than the body requires
• Comfort eating

There are many reasons for obesity and many are beyond an individual's control, including:

- Medications that promote weight gain e.g. certain antidepressants

- Untreated endocrine disorders e.g. hypothyroidism

- Untreated depression that removes the energy/will to exercise and/or control diet

- Physical impairment that precludes exercise

- Exposure to pthalates (chemicals found in some plastic products) as an infant

- Genetic predisposition

- Parental influence in childhood, specifically inappropriate diet (the number of fat cells are fixed at adolescence)

and others.

Furthermore, aggressive dieting can exacerbate the situation by adversely affecting one's metabolism. Chances are the person who's derided as a 'fatty' has been dieting for most of their life.

people not movement

If a person does not keep moving - their muscles, joints, ligaments and tendons will have a tendency to shorten and stiffen. Then when the joint is moved - it will hurt as all parts are stiff and not used to moving.

Even a 90+ year old should keep moving to keep flexible one CAN regain flexibility IF they will stretch and move slowly to bring the muscles and attachments back to a more normal situation

KEEP MOVING - KEEP STRETCHING

The government is worried about obesity because people are dying it is also costing the NHS which he funds a fortune.

The short answer is that you've asked an unanswerable question. I certainly hope this question isn't being asked that you may find the proper description of her body issues for future insults. The only medically relevant term you used was obese, and it doesn't sound like your wife qualifies. Your wife may have excess fat, or may store it differently than others. No one can describe someone they can't see as "fat" or "plump", so I will address the only relevant issue at hand: health. I'm going to assume you're asking out of love, respect and concern for her health. No single test or factor can provide a complete picture of health. A BMI of 30 or more is considered obese, 25-29.9 is overweight, and 18.5-24.9 normal. Her BMI is considered normal. You also say she has a 33.5" waist if I read correctly. That number is quite high. Carrying excess fat around the stomach is thought to increase the risk of many health ailments, including and especially heart troubles. That said, I don't know what her weight is or how she's built, so I can't say for certain how much body fat she is carrying or if she has health problems. This is a matter better left between her and her doctor.

That is true!

Regarding taste and smell, the statement so called supertasters may be inclined to obesity is true. A supertaster is a person who is very sensitive to tastes because they have over active taste buds.

more obese, most obese

No. Morbidly obese people do.

Most gum has little to no calories. I would not classify it as a food at all.

pies, pastries, sweets, sugar, lard, saturated fats, high salt snacks like peanuts,high in fat too,cream, biscuits,,crisps,,chips,,fried foods,use oil spray,the odd biscuit or snack, cake etc in very limited moderation is ok as long as you dont overdo it,,and have balanced diet,,fruit veg grains water etc and reduce cut out salt and sugars saturated fats,,fats in oily fish like salmon mackerel etc are healthy fats but reduce,limit all fats to lose weight,,,like life get the balance right,,equal equilibrium in all things,,exercise, relax, destress etc.

Hypothyroidism is associated with the lack of production of the thyroid hormone, which can lead to a variety of symptoms:

* Weight gain * Hair Loss * Decreased libido * Overall weakness * And yes, low energy levels Hypothyroidism is much more common in women than in men. Diagnosis is a relatively simple blood test, and you ask your doctor to be tested if you notice a combination of the symptoms listed above.

Treatment usually consists of a daily pill that regulates your body's thyroid hormone production to normal levels. This treatment is very effective at reducing or eliminating the effects of the disease.

After the surgery it is important for the stomach not to stretch. Therefore, very light food like clear broths, soups, low fat yogurt and milk should be eaten. After some time the patient can start incorporating softer food and eat three small meals daily.

Yes a woman can. Hormonal imblances can cause a woman to have hairy backs.

PCOS causes a womans estrogene and progestrone levels to lower and testostrone to increase.

64% of adults (18 and older) in the United States are overweight.

Yes they can. Several of my friends are obese and have irregular periods and they became pregnant. It was hard though to tell the due date, because of the irregularity of their periods. All of their children are healthy too:)
