This is not an easy question to answer because there are differences in bone structure between people. Some people have a heavy bone structure and yet look thin and vice versa. So, what should I pay attention to? The question should really be:
How much of my weight is muscle weight and how much represents fat weight?
There are various ways to determine this, I will mention only two:
1 BMI: This stands for Basal Metabolic Index. This is a calculation involving height and weight.
2 Body Composition Analysis: This is a calculation performed by electrical impedance. It measures the percent and pounds of total body fat as it relates to muscle as well as the percent and pounds of lean body mass a person have.
Why I Am Fat?
The main factors in most people are:
1- Eating too many calories
2- Inactivity, not enough exercise
3- Hereditary factors
These problems are the real basis for our weight problem. We eat more than we use up or burn, so the calories not used up are stored in our body in the form of fat.
1- Reduce the amount of calories you take.
2- Become more physically active.
3- Do both.
This is easier said than done, otherwise, everyone would do it and be thin.
• The long - term success is more about identifying behaviors that have caused you to eat more food (and richer foods) than your body can burn.
• Choose an activity you enjoy and do it. It will take some discipline to form a new habit, but it will be worth the effort. So, decide to change your lifestyle; change your habits for long-term benefits and weight loss results.
