Read More »Assessing Your Weight and Health Risk Assessment of weight and health risk involves using three key measures: Body mass index (BMI) Waist circumference Risk factors for diseases and conditions associated with obesity Body Mass Index (BMI) BMI is a useful measure of overweight and obesity. It is calculated from your height and weight. BMI is an estimate of body fat and a good gauge of your risk for diseases that can occur with more body fat. The higher your BMI, the higher your risk for certain diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, gallstones, breathing problems, and certain cancers. Although BMI can be used for most men and women, it does have some limits: It may overestimate body fat in athletes and others who have a muscular build. It may underestimate body fat in older persons and others who have lost muscle. Use the BMI Calculator or BMI Tables to estimate your body fat. The BMI score means the following: BMI Underweight Below 18.5 Normal 18.5–24.9 Overweight 25.0–29.9 Obesity 30.0 and Above Waist Circumference Measuring waist circumference helps screen for possible health risks that come with overweight and obesity. If most of your fat is around your waist rather than at your hips, you’re at a higher risk for heart disease and type 2 diabetes. This risk goes up with a waist size that is greater than 35 inches for women or greater than 40 inches for men. To correctly measure your waist, stand and place a tape measure around your middle, just above your hipbones. Measure your waist just after you breathe out. The table Risks of Obesity-Associated Diseases by BMI and Waist Circumference provides you with an idea of whether your BMI combined with your waist circumference increases your risk for developing obesity-associated diseases or conditions. Risk Factors for Health Topics Associated With Obesity Along with being overweight or obese, the following conditions will put you at greater risk for heart disease and other conditions: Risk Factors High blood pressure (hypertension)

Where our body stores fat is based on our unique genetics. For some it is more on the inside, or the visceral fat. For others it is on their thighs. Yet another place where we store extra fat is in the upper pubic area, affectionately known as the “FUPA.” A FUPA results in a more pronounced lower belly area that can affect anyone, even Beyonce! Having kids and a C-section scar can make the shelf of tissue in the FUPA be more saggy. The skin and fat stretch during pregnancy. If that tissue does not snap back (which is pretty common), then we are left with a sagging area of skin and fat under the C-section scar. If you reached your limit with a healthy diet and regular exercise and now wonder how to get rid of that FUPA, keep reading. Depending on your specific needs, there are three good options to get rid of a fatty upper pubic area. These options are a Tummy Tuck, Liposuction and CoolSculpting. Let’s go over the details below.
