As a nation, we’re getting fatter
In Britain, people with a healthy body weight are in the minority．

What is a healthy weight?
You can find out whether your weight is within the healthy range by calculating your body mass index or BMI．Check your BMI using our BMI chart．
For many people, it’s just not realistic to aim for a so-called “ideal weight” for your height．Instead of focusing on a target weight, it may be more helpful to work on changing your lifestyle, which can help you reach a healthier weight．
Small changes can have big effects
Most people gain weight throughout their lives, often without realizing it．Very small changes can result in large weight gains over time, For example by simply eating an excess of 50 calories per day – just half a biscuit – you could gain 5 pounds or 2kg over a year．So in 5 years’ time you could be over 25 pounds or 10 kg heavier．
But good news is that small changes of your lifestyle can lead reduction in body weight．This may sound simple, but in reality it takes commitment and effort to change the habits of a lifetime．The day-to-day choices we make about our lifestyle have the greatest effect on our weight．

Most parents love the Internet and want their kids to use it．But a new survey in America finds almost as many also fear the online world－especially social networking sites such as My Space－and worry their kids will get in trouble with people they meet．
“The parents see the web's amazing potential, and they know their kids have to be there,”says James Steyer, CEO of Common Sense Media, which gives out results from a survey that looked into parents'attitudes toward the Internet．
The study was conducted online May 5－10 by Insight Research Group．It says 80％ of parents are concerned about kids meeting bad people online．
That's because young people who largely have grown up with the Net think of it as a social outlet, say the researchers．To young people, the benefits of giving out some personal information to reach out to friends outweigh the risks．And, the study shows they are so comfortable with the medium that 78％ have a personal website or blog．
Parents also recognize the importance of the Internet．The survey shows 90％ think the Net helps their children explore their passions, and 77％ think the Internet is one of the most valuable education tools teens have．But 88％ think it's important to know what ________．Findings suggest both parents and teens need more education about using online media, Steyer says．
Internet safety has become an increasing concern for parents in America．Organizations like the non-profit Common Sense have been trying to reach and help parents pay attention to the problem．
