A

nswer: Dear Robert, it's
a good question and the
simple answer is, no, it
doesn't necessarily mean that your
weight isn't a health risk.

• Do you have a fam-
ily history of diabetes,
hypertension, or cardio-
vascular disease?

• Do you have poor eating habits,
e.g., do you tend to eat a lot of
fast food, food high in saturated
fats, or food that is rich in pro-
cessed/refined carbohydrates?

If you answered yes to one or more
of the above, or want to be evaluat-
ed professionally, I suggest seeing
a qualified nutritionist/dietitian or
your primary care physician.
