The study included 200 urban women from Sambalpur district, Odisha. Normal women and women with risk of obesity were recruited for conducting the study. Along with the demographic and anthropometric profile data on family history, food habits and causative factors of obesity were obtained by using the interview schedule. The finding revealed that about 48 per cent of obese women had maternal obesity, 14 per cent had paternal obesity and 33 per cent had obesity of both the parent. The difference in anthropometric measurements like height, weight, MUAC and waist circumference were found to be highly significant (P<0.05) with prevalence of obesity on the basis of analysis of variance. There was no abnormality in lipid profile, though the subjects were obese, which indicate that there overweight is of recent origin.Keywords

The study included 200 urban women from Sambalpur district, Odisha. Normal women and women with risk of obesity were recruited for conducting the study. Data on general information, socio-economic status, and anthropometric measurements were collected using interview schedule. While calculating the WHR about 69 per cent women were normal and 31 per cent belongs to obese category. BMI has significant correlation with WHR, weight, MUAC and waist circumference, but has negative correlation with height. WHR has significant correlation with weight, MUAC and waist circumference but has negative correlation with height. The results revealed that about 21.5 per cent were normal women, 50 per cent were pre-obese, 24.5 per cent belonged to obese class-I type and only 4.0 per cent belonged to obese class-III category.Keywords
