Why Lose Weight?

The main reason to lose weight is for health, not appearance.

  • Nearly 112,000 deaths per year may be attributable to obesity.
  • The risk of death rises with increasing weight.
  • Even moderate weight excess (10 to 20 pounds for a person of
         average height) increases the risk of death, particularly among adults
  ages 30 to 64.
  greater than 30) have a higher risk of excess death (they are more
  likely to die) from all causes, compared to people at a healthy weight.

Obesity is now recognized as a major risk factor for coronary heart
disease, which can lead to heart attack. Some reasons for this
higher risk are known, but others are not. For example:

  • The incidence of heart disease is higher in persons who are overweight
  or obese (BMI greater than 25).
  • High blood pressure is more common in adults who are obese than in those who are at a healthy weight.
  • Obesity is associated with elevated triglycerides (blood fat) and
  decreased HDL cholesterol ("good") cholesterol.
  • Even when there are no adverse effects on the known risk factors, obesity by itself increases the
  risk of heart disease.













The consequences of weight gain are serious for other health issues as well.

  • A weight gain of 11 to 18 pounds increases a person's
         risk of developing type 2 diabetes to twice that of people who have not gained weight.
  • Over 80 percent of people with diabetes are overweight or obese.
  • Overweight and obesity are associated with an increased risk for some types of cancer including endometrial (cancer of the lining of the uterus), colon, gall bladder, prostate, kidney and postmenopausal breast cancer.
  • Women gaining more than 20 pounds from age 18 to midlife double their risk of postmenopausal breast cancer, compared to women whose weight remains stable.
  • Sleep apnea (interrupted breathing while sleeping) is more common in obese persons.
  • Obesity is associated with a higher prevalence of asthma.
  • For every 2-pound increase in weight, the risk of developing arthritis increases by 9 to 13 percent.
  • Symptoms of arthritis can improve with weight loss.

U.S. Obesity Trends 1997–2006

During the past 20 years there has been a dramatic increase in obesity in the United States. This slide set illustrates this trend by mapping the increased prevalence of obesity across each of the states.

In 2006, only four states had a prevalence of obesity less than 20%. Twenty-two states had a prevalence equal or greater than 25%; two of these states (Mississippi and West Virginia) had a prevalence of obesity equal to or greater than 30%.
The animated map below shows the United States obesity prevalence from 1997 through 2006
The data shown in these maps were collected through the CDC’s Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). Each year, state health departments use standard procedures to collect data through a series of monthly telephone interviews with U.S. adults. Prevalence estimates generated for the maps may vary slightly from those generated for the states by the BRFSS as slightly different analytic methods are used.
