Weight Loss Man vs Woman

They say that weight problems are mostly a woman's
heredity or thing. There are more articles that
contradict that idea and suggest that there are
as many obese men as women.  The weight loss site 
that tells about this is located at
http://www.web-articles.info/e/s/s/Weight-loss/
and give an update on all the different idea's that
are associated with this article. There are actually
more overweight men in the US than overweight women.
There are several factors that undoubtedly account
for the difference, the gender gap when it comes
to self-assessment, that may play an important role.
Guys that do take a good look at their bodies they
see themselves as big rather than overweight.
Women look in the mirror that men and women are more
accurate in assessing the status of their weight.
Men’s ability to assess their weight status is less
finely tuned than women’s. Our society values
thinness in women and it's no secret that there
aren't many magazines show over weight women at
popular. We know that being underweight also carries
health risks. A woman who is already at a healthy
weight may feel the need to lose weight.  This
isn't necessarily so,according to some doctor's.
This is particularly true for young and middle-aged
women, who are often more likely to consider
themselves overweight even when their weight is
within the recommended range. In other words men
don't consider themselves obese when women look
at themselves at fat.
