  3. Maintaining weight means understanding your healthy weight range. In order to do that, you need to know your Body Mass Index, or BMI. BMI is a ratio that allows you to assess your body size in relation to your height and weight.

  4. Calculating BMI BMI = (Wt. in pounds) / (Ht. in inches) x 703 Mr. Cop Example: BMI = 175lbs / 72in X 703 BMI = 175/5184 x 703 BMI = .03376 X 703 BMI = 23.73 2 2

  5. What’s the problem with this picture?

  6. BMI continued… -Females tend to carry more fat than males, therefore the scale can be adjusted one point higher for females. -Older males tend to carry more fat than younger males, so the scale can be adjusted for that. -You must know your body! If you are in a range that raises a red flag, it may be time to start eating healthy!

  7. What can happen over time if you continue to choose to eat poorly? Activity: Get into groups of 4 and come up with a list of 3 physical and 3 emotional effects of not eating properly.

  8. Physical Effects: Heart Disease -A narrowing of the small blood vessels that supply blood and oxygen to the heart -Leading cause of death in US -Fatty material builds on the wall of the arteries, causing them to get narrow and slow or eventually stop blood flow.

  9. Type 2 Diabetes -When you eat, your blood sugar rises because your body is turning the food into glucose. -Insulin is needed to get the glucose into the cells for energy. -Fattier Foods = Higher Blood Sugar -A lifetime of poor nutrition means your body ignores or can’t produce enough insulin. -All the extra glucose in the blood will lead to: -Heart disease -Stroke -Liver Failure -Limb amputation Let’s take a closer look at how Type 2 Diabetes works…

  10. Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) -Is the measure of force against the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps blood through your body -Excessive pressure means your heart has to work much harder to pump blood to your body. -Complications associated: -Heart Attack -Heart Failure -Poor blood supply to legs -Stroke

  11. Stroke -Occurs when blood flow to part of the brain stops -If longer than a few seconds, the brain cannot get blood and oxygen, and permanent damage occurs -Occurs when a clot forms in an artery that is already narrowed from plaque and fatty build-up -Complete numbness on one side of body -Trouble speaking -Loss of some or all of vision -Trouble walking

  12. Other physical effects associated: -Cancer Esophagus Colon Pancreas Kidney Thyroid -Liver Disease -Sleep apnea -Osteoarthritis

  13. Emotional Effects: -Poor Self-Esteem, or a negative evaluation or appraisal of your self-worth. -Constant comparison to others and poor view of yourself -Poor view of self can lead to severe depression -Can lead to suicidal thoughts if not addressed

  14. Depression -Clinical Mood disorder in which feelings of sadness, anger, or frustration interfere with everyday life -Generally have a negative attitude towards themselves, others and life in general -Feeling depressed can cause emotional eating, which can lead to a viscous cycle.

  15. Eating Disorders are mental illnesses that cause serious disturbances to your daily eating habits. Anorexia Nervosa – Characterized by extreme thinness and a relentless pursuit to stay underweight -Distorted body image (usually see themselves as overweight) -Intense fear of gaining weight -Damage to heart, brain -Low blood pressure -Organ failure -Too many more health problems to list

  16. Bulimia Nervosa is characterized by recurrent and frequent episodes of uncontrollable binge eating followed by a behavior that compensates for the overeating, such as: -vomiting -excessive use of laxatives -fasting -excessive exercise

  17. Binge-Eating Disorder is characterized by periods of loss of control over a person’s eating. These periods are not followed by purging, causing these people to generally be overweight or obese. -Destructive and guilty thoughts provoke more episodes of binge eating. True Life 1. True Life 2

  18. Eating disorders are real, scary and dangerous. If you or someone you know is struggling, please contact a parent, teacher, counselor or other trusted adult for help. National Eating Disorder Association Hotline: 800-931-2237 Call Immediately for HELP!

  19. How much does Obesity and it’s effects cost the U.S. annually? $147 Billion
