ওজন বেশী এবং স্থূলাকার- এই দুটি শব্দ ওজন বৃদ্ধির দুটি দিককে নির্দেশ করে। যা একজন মাউশের বিএমআই বা বডি মাস ইনডেক্স-এর মাধ্যমে জানা যায়। বডি মাস ইনডেক্স হল, একজন প্রাপ্তবয়স্ক মানুষের পুরুষ বা মহিলা নির্বিশেষে বয়স এবং উচ্চতা অনুযায়ী তার সঠিক ওজনের পরিমাপ জানার পদ্ধতি।   

স্থূলাকায় অর্থ হল, এমন এক অবস্থা যা বিএমআই-এর মাত্রা ত্রিশের অধিক। এক্ষেত্রে একজন মানুষের শরীরে অতিরিক্ত পরিমাণে ওজন বেড়ে যায়। অর্থাৎ, যে পরিমাণ অতিরিক্ত ওজন আমাদের শরীর বহন করতে প্রায় অপারগ। অন্যদিকে, ওজন বৃদ্ধি হল, এমন এক অবস্থা যেখানে একজন মানুষের বয়স এবং উচ্চতা অনুযায়ী ওজন কিছু পরিমাণে বৃদ্ধি পেয়েছে।

হু বা ওয়ার্ল্ড হেলথ অর্গানাইজেশন(২০১৬) এবং নাইসের(২০১৪) মতানুসারে, একজন মানুষ তখনই স্থূলাকার হিসাবে গণ্য হবেন, যখন বিএমআই  বা বডি মাস ইনডেক্স-এর মাত্রা ত্রিশের কাটা অতিক্রম করে। আর যাদের ক্ষেত্রে এই মাত্রা ২৫ থেকে ২৯.৯-এর মধ্যে অবস্থান করে, তাদের শুধুমাত্র ওজন বৃদ্ধি হয়েছে বলে ধরা হয়।
