Are You fit or Fat?

A person’s weight is a highly individual thing but here are some guidelines. By definition, obese means being 20 percent or more above one’s ideal weight. A person with an ideal weight of 120 lbs. would be obese at 144 lbs. or more. Overweight , on the other hand , means being 10-19 percent above one’s ideal weight. Our hypothetical person with an ideal weight of 120 lbs. would be overweight at 132-143 lbs.
