First, we must define obesity to better understand it and then dis-
cuss what can be done outside of medication and surgery to con-
trol or manage this disorder. Obesity is defined as a chronic con-
dition resulting from the interaction between a person’s genetic
makeup and the environment (phenotype). There are a lot of fac-
tors to include social, behavioral, cultural, psychological, and hor-
monal or metabolic that impact this disease. Despite the over-
whelming number of people who suffer this disorder, it is still
poorly understood. One is considered obese when their Body
Mass Index (BMI) calculated by using weight and height is elevat-
ed. A person with a BMI of greater than 30% is by definition obese.
In 1999, the National Health & Nutrition Exam Survey (NHANES)
found that 61% of Americans are obese. This is a 5% increase over the
1988 – 1994 period and a 14% increase over the 1976 – 1980 period.
This is a sad state of affairs. Something has gone terribly wrong here.
The relative risks for several other diseases are significant. Diabetes
type II, Coronary Artery Disease, Hypertension, Cancer, Dyslipidemia,
and Sleep Apnea are all disorders that arise in part due to obesity. For
better quality of life, it is essential to avoid obesity and all its sequel-
ae. That is why in anti-aging medicine, nutrition, diet and exercise
is as important as any other medication or hormone we prescribe.
Simply put, if one is to reduce caloric intake in conjunction with
increased caloric expenditure, the result is weight loss (a loss of stored
fat as opposed to muscle should really be the choice of words here.)
Unfortunately, there is no magic pill or procedure that is safer than eat-
ing right and exercising. But it takes will power and compliance and
many Americans are not willing to be this disciplined. The alternatives
can be costly. Do nothing and you subject yourself to an early death
and increased morbidity from the other illnesses mentioned above.
Pick a weight loss medication and you can suffer the consequences of
many untoward and dangerous side effects. Remember the problems
with Redux and Fen-phen. Also, who wants to suffer from the gastric
discomfort of Orlistat (Xenical), or the danger of sudden death with

TEAM MEMBER OF THE MONTH Lesley Hutchens is an Asheville, NC transplant with a business degree from UNC Chapel Hill. She and her husband Eric moved to Myrtle Beach in 1996. Lesley owned and operated her own successful business for years before becoming interested in massage therapy. After visiting a chiropractor for some back issues and receiving mini-massages on-site, she got to thinking. “I saw how beneficial it was and thought, ‘hey! I should do that!’” Self-motivated as ever, she put herself through massage school at the South Carolina Massage and Esthetics Institute, graduating in 2001. She did massage therapy part-time while somehow maintaining her business AND her duties as a full-time mom, but closed up shop in 2010 to focus permanently on massage. Her areas of specialty are deep tissue, prenatal, and trigger point therapies.
