Not all snoring is caused by obstructive sleep apnea, but that is the most common cause of really loud snoring. It is a serious disorder which can cause heart damage and eventually kill the snorer. Anyone who snores a lot should get a sleep study done, as apnea is easily treated by the use of a CPAP machine, but these have to be individually set for the correct pressure to stop a person's apnea/snoring, so you can't just buy one - you MUST go to a sleep clinic and get a prescription - too little pressure will not stop the snoring/apnea, and too much can cause other serious problems.
Sleep apnea is NOT always weight related.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea. "When loud snoring is interrupted by frequent episodes of totally obstructed breathing, it is known as obstructive sleep apnea."
