Obesity is an excess proportion of total body fat. A person is considered obese when the body weight is 20% or more above normal weight. Obesity occurs when a person consumes more calories than he or she burns. Excess weight gain usually starts when individuals are aged between 20 and 40 with maximum body weight being achieved in middle age. Weight tends to stabilize when the increased metabolic demands of the body balance the energy intake. Once weight has been gained, it is very unusual to lose it spontaneously before the age of 65. For individuals aged between 30 and 42, the risk of death increases by 1% for each 0.5 kg weight rise. For individuals between the ages of 50 and 62, this figure becomes 2% for each 0.5 kg weight rise. We have developed comprehensive treatment plan for weight loss which is very effective for all age groups.
