Obesity in The Bahamas
Obesity is one of the most serious public health challenges facing Bahamians today.
More than 47% of adults in The Bahamas are overweight or obese.¹

Bahamian adults with obesity also live with type 2 diabetes, hypertension, or related conditions.³
For many adults, lasting weight loss remains out of reach despite serious effort. Diet and exercise alone often aren’t enough. GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy can help, but results are frequently temporary, side effects can be difficult, and the medications must be taken indefinitely. Bariatric surgery is invasive, permanent, costly, and not a path every patient can — or wants to — take.
The Fit and Trim program was created to offer Bahamian adults a new option.
