How can I determine my state of body weight?
The answer is very simple: you can use the body mass index. Simply divide your weight /your height(meters). for example if you weigh 87kg and your height is 176cm then your BMI is 87/((1.76)^2 )=87/3.09 =28 .
The ideal BMI is 20 to 25 ,however up to 31 is not considered as a disease. But when it reaches 31 you should consider diet regime or asking your doctor about the possible treatment. If the BMI reaches 44, this will indicate a dangerous state that threatens patient's life.

CAUSES OF OBESITY
Body weight is the end result of three major factors:
Nutrition i.e. the total amount of calories taken by the person daily.
The muscular effort daily done: It depends on the nature of person's job and the physical exercises done by the person.
Body metabolism: it is dependent on multiple hormonal factors.
But these three factors are affected by indirect causes of obesity, including:
The style of modern life, where the machine is working in stead of human beings. Also unhealthy foods, like industrial juices and snacks and soda water (such as Coca-Cola), are available. So, muscular effort decreases and calorie amounts entered into the body increases.
Inherited factors: such as genetic factors like inherited obesity; some families are known by obesity, as well as pregnancy after the age of forty which leads to delivery of obese babies, as well as when obese persons marry from each other.
Endocrine causes: most hormonal imbalances cause increase in body weight with the exception of a few of them which may lead to the contrary, such as increasing in the secretions of the thyroid gland, for example.
Ceasing smoking for addicts.
Medical drugs: Some drugs may lead to a considerable increase in body weight, such as antidepressants.
Sleep disorders.
