Defining Overweight and Obesity

The CDC is a fabulous resource, thanks again to them for putting this on their website!

Overweight and obesity are both labels for ranges of weight that are greater than what is generally considered healthy for a given height. The terms also identify ranges of weight that have been shown to increase the likelihood of certain diseases and other health problems.
