How can I prevent class III obesity?

If your BMI or other medical assessments indicate that you’re getting close to having obesity or if you have certain risk factors, your healthcare provider may recommend developing healthy lifestyle changes to try to prevent you from developing obesity. Lifestyle changes include:

• Eating a heart-healthy diet.
• Being physically active and exercising.
• Aiming for a healthy personal weight based on your sex, height and health conditions.
• Managing stress.
• Getting healthy amounts of sleep.

These recommendations will be specific to your health and situation. Talk to your healthcare provider and/or a registered dietician about setting healthy and obtainable goals.
