LighterLife’s weight-loss programmes help the clinically obese
and the overweight
LighterLife’s weight-loss and
weight-management programmes have been specially developed to help
men and women who are both clinically obese and overweight. To join
Lighterlife you’ll need to have a BMI of 25 or above, typically
this means you’ll have one or more stone to lose.
Obesity is the biggest health threat in the
UK, accounting for 9,000 deaths per annum in England alone. As many
as two thirds of adults in the country are now considered to be
clinically obese or overweight; even more worryingly, an increasing
number of children are classified as clinically obese or
overweight. This means that they are carrying too much body fat for
their height and gender.
How do I know if I am clinically obese or overweight?
The most scientific way to check whether you
are clinically obese or overweight is to calculate your Body Mass
Index (BMI). In the UK, if this falls between 25 and 30, you are
categorised as overweight, but if it is above 30 you are seen as
clinically obese. Permanent weight loss could really improve your
health.
This is because obesity not only shortens your
life expectancy by an average of nine years, but also puts you at
greater risk from over 40 serious health conditions, including
heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes,
osteoarthritis, strokes, gallstones, gout and Alzheimer's disease.
It also significantly increases your chance of getting some types
of cancer.
