Deepak Chopra's 'Weightless Project' is aiming to fight both obesity and starvation by rewarding people for losing weight by raising money for people desperately needing to gain it.

Chopra said that despite efforts at watching weight, people are still losing the weight over obesity, Huffington Post reported.

He said that while the world around us is grappling with losing weight, there is a more serious problem that we seem to have forgotten.

Chopra added that the problem is hunger and malnutrition, which kill millions of people every year.
