Excess fat around your waist gives rise to many health risks. Your health risks increases as the waist measurement increases, particularly if the waist measurement is more than 80 cms(approx 31.6 inches) for females or 90 cms(35.6 inches) for males. Even if your BMI is normal, but your waist measurement is more, then you have more fat in your body than desirable which gives rise to many health risks.
