Obesity is an increase in body weight beyond the limitation of skeletal and physical requirements, as the result of excessive accumulation of body fat. The aim of this study is to evaluate obesity-related dietary behaviors and to scrutinize the use of anti-obesity drugs and their long term effectiveness versus the risks and side effects associated with these treatments. Through this research we are seeking to explore recent discoveries in order to propel the forces contributing to obesity and towards developing strategies for its treatment rather risking precious lives. For this purpose, we had conducted a survey including a total of 540 sample out of which 270eligible individuals were judged on their eating behavior’s and on the contrary, 270 married individuals were questioned about their health weight history. It concluded that, the younger generation is not particularly concerned with the future consequences associated with obesity, while the married people face several problems associated with it.
