Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

Am I overweight? My BMI says no, but I think I’m pretty fat. Look at the photo, and you will see. Can someone analyze my body and tell me if I’m overweight or not?

Answered by Mrs. Arpitha

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

Yes, abdominal fat can occur due to long sitting hours, poor posture, high stress levels, and lack of sleep or disturbed sleep habits. To address this, start by making small changes: take a 5-minute break every hour, prioritize proper sleep by going to bed at consistent times, and aim for adequate rest each night. Once your posture and sleep habits are aligned, focus on improving your fitness levels by enhancing strength, stamina, and endurance. Additionally, eating balanced meals at regular times will help you see a significant difference in how you feel and look.

Thanks
