- W2010496731 abstract "Obesity is rapidly increasing throughout the world. In less than 50 years its prevalence has increased in many countries, and today overweight and obese people are more the norm than a curiosity. Globally, there are more than 1 billion overweight adults, and around a third of them are obese [1]. With its severe effects on health and disease, obesity is one of the world’s most threatening health hazards, Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, stroke and certain cancers being its most apparent consequences [1]. In addition, societal pressures against obesity are strong and many studies document that being overweight is considered selfinflicted and a sign of weakness and lack of character. In accordance, several reports suggest that quality of life is grossly reduced among obese people. For instance, one study reported that mental wellbeing was worse among the obese than among the chronically ill or injured [2]. Another study found that obese people are more likely to report serious emotional problems [3]. Obesity also has severe consequences for other aspects of psychosocial wellbeing in general, which may to some constitute more of an immediate burden than the physical health consequences. The obese are being stigmatized by peers, relatives, health personnel, educators and employers. Studies show, for instance, that peers view the obese as different and undesirable, which results in teasing, bullying and social exclusion [4–7]. Also, family members have been observed to tease and critisize [5,8,9]. Paradoxically, health personnel may also take complaints from obese patients less seriously than complaints from normal-weight patients. One study" @default.
