Obesity can be defined as the excess body fat gathered to the extent that it may have negative effects on health. The increasing number of overweight and obese people had been described as an epidemic and pandemic over the past four decades, especially in adults.

This study is a qualitative research with a phenomenological design. Participants of the study are selected obese and overweight Senior High Students of the University of Santo Tomas-Legazpi, one male and three females aged 16-18. A semi-structured interview guide was used in gathering the data with one on one in-depth interview. An audio recorder was used to record the interview.
