Overweight

/ˌoʊvərˈweɪt/adjective / noun
ELI5 mode

Overweight refers to having a weight that exceeds what is considered normal or healthy for one's height and build, often linked to increased risks of diseases like diabetes and heart conditions. In a broader sense, it can describe anything exceeding standard limits, such as in finance where it means allocating more resources to an asset than typical benchmarks suggest, reflecting a strategic bet on its potential.
