Doctorโs Note
Dr Muhammad Usman, MBBS
16.5 stone is a weight where I often look for metabolic risk factors during a consultation. For most patients of average height, this weight falls into Class 2 obesity (BMI between 35 and 40). At this level, I would be checking for signs of obstructive sleep apnoea or indicators of pre-diabetes. The key is to start small; even a 5 percent weight loss (approx. 5 kg) can lead to measurable improvements in physical health and a reduction in long-term risk factors.
