Prevalence of obese people is increasing day by day all over the world, including Albania. Although, in our country the figures are still low compared with other countries. There is a dramatic increase in obe- sity figures, which has prompted the World Health Organization to consider obesity a global epidemic. Despite the world-wide spread of this problem and understanding of concepts related to genetic heritage weight, negative attitudes and behaviors associated with obese people continue to be present in all in- dustrialized societies. This is likely to be related to the overvaluation that in these societies become the elegant body shape. Field researchers think scorn and diskretititmi persons, unfortunately are still pres- ent, remaining as the last form “socially acceptable” prejudice. Prejudice against obese persons, starts soon. Crandall 1999, for example, found that obese children had less support from their families to pay for school, compared with their peers with normal weight. Associated with weight discrimination ap- pears more in women rather than men. Roehlin, Puhl and Brownell, 1999, have confirmed this in a study with 210 subjects. In this study, highlight the link that exists between two factors obesity, prejudice and dis- crimination – which is likely to contribute to psycho- logical problems in obese persons. The presence of stigma and prejudice, incresases psychological prob- lems to obese people, paying special attention to risk factors, including sex, presence of binge episodes and degree of obesity. Impact of body image is very large in quality of life, as the effects of losing and regain- ing weight to psychological state. Also, stigma and discrimination, can be linked with the complications that can arise during psychosocial treatment to obese people. This is due to the prejudices of staff deliver- ing health services.
