overweight problems

According to a recent survey conducted by ObEpi-Roche 2009 through the partnership of TNS Healthcare Sofres. There are currently 14.5% or 6.5 million adults in France who are suffering with overweight problems. The survey are done every three years starting from the year 1997 and the findings are very alarming. Adult obesity has steadily increased since then and it appears that the increase is greater among women than men. I am thankful that no one in my family have been dealing with obesity. Like most women in thier forties i do have belly fats too but i know belly fat can be avoided through simple stomach exercises and proper diet:)
