Back pain
High blood pressure
Headaches
Arthritis in your knees
Type 2 diabetes
Chronic leg pain
Sports injuries that don’t heal quickly

Q

How Much Is Too Much?

A

Obesity in the fitness and medical fields is defined by your body mass index or BMI. If your BMI is 25 to 30, you’re considered overweight, and if it’s over 30, you fall in the obesity range. Figure out your BMI online, or let your ReBalance doctor measure you with calipers, which provides a much more reliable number.

Your BMI tells you what a healthy weight range is for your height. For example, if you’re a 5’9″ man, you should weigh 125 to 168 pounds. The index helps you and your doctors understand your risks, although you probably have already begun to feel the effects of your extra weight.
