Understanding the EOSS Stages

Stage 0-1: You have no weight-related health issues, or only very mild ones. Your main focus is on long-term wellness and preventing future health problems.

Stage 2: You have a clear, diagnosed condition affected by weight (like high blood pressure, pre-diabetes, or sleep apnea). Starting a health management plan is highly recommended.

Stage 3: Your weight is causing serious damage to your health or severely limiting your daily physical and emotional function. Starting treatment is now a high priority.

Stage 4: You are facing severe, life-altering health challenges or disabilities from your weight. This requires advanced, specialized medical and clinical support.
