Answer:
Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to an extent that it may have a negative effect on health.[1] People are generally considered obese when their body mass index (BMI), a measurement obtained by dividing a person's weight by the square of the person's height, is over 30 kg/m2; the range 25–30 kg/m2 is defined as overweight.[1] Some East Asian countries use lower values.[8] Obesity is correlated with various diseases and conditions, particularly cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, certain types of cancer, and osteoarthritis.[2] High BMI is a marker of risk, but not proven to be a direct cause, for diseases caused by diet, physical activity, and environmental factors.[9] A reciprocal link has been found between obesity and depression, with obesity increasing the risk of clinical depression and also depression leading to a higher chance of developing obesity.[3]

Explanation:
Hello Friends – Greetings of the Day to everyone!
Today, I am going to address a very pertinent issue that people are suffering from in the contemporary times, i.e. Obesity. First of all, I would like to know what categorizes a person as obese in your opinion. Perhaps someone who appears overweight, i.e. more than the actual size of his/her body. However, to put it in precise terms, it is characterized by the Body Mass Index or BMI, which is a general formula that draws a comparison between height and weight in order to estimate the amount of fat present in one’s body. For instance, if one has a BMI ranging between 25-30 kg per meter square; then he/she is believed to be overweight. Secondly, in case one has a BMI of more than 30, then that person is considered obese.
It is very unfortunate that the word obese is made more common. At present, 30 percent of children and 25 percent of adults are considered as obese in the UK, which cost the National Health Survey around one billion pounds every year. The rates in our country, i.e. India, would definitely be alarming as almost every person next door suffers from obesity issue.
The problem of obesity has to do a lot with our sedentary lifestyle and of course our eating habits. The number of calories intake suggested for men is three thousand five hundred whereas for women it’s two thousand calories. Whereas people who are thin may do regular work out and people who are overweight do not put any effort towards bringing their weight under control. As per the BBC report, three out of four obese people do not do any physical work out during the week.
As far as children and teenagers are concerned, they are more into electrical games, like the ‘Play Station’ and the ‘X box’. Due to electrical games, they spend most of their free time indoors and avoid going outside or doing physical activities. I, therefore, feel that the government should take some pro-active measures with respect to the growing numbers of obese children. According to me, one takes a path of obesity right from his/her childhood only. A child mostly eats what his/her parents give him/her. I am sure, if they are given healthy food options or inculcated this habit of eating healthy food, they will never turn to the habit of eating unhealthy food and will always remain conscious of their health.
I am sure that if people will gain awareness on how to lose weight and why it is important to lose weight, then a change can definitely come in our society. Then, they will not have to live under the fear of being attacked by a disease or becoming slothful, etc. A fit body and a sound mind can lay strong foundation and can work towards a better tomorrow. So let’s make a point to enlighten as many people possible on this issue and encourage a healthy eating habit.
Thank You!
