Answer to Question 1

You can observe how you look in the mirror and how your clothes fit to determine if you are heavier than in the past. A more specific determinant is weighing yourself on a scale. You can evaluate your weight and body composition in light of any potential health risks through calculating your body mass index (BMI), measuring your waist circumference, calculating your waist-to-hip ratio, and/or having your body composition measured by a trained health care or fitness professional.
