Do you need to lose weight to get that bikini body well in time for summer? Get back into jeans that fit you 10 years ago? Or has your doctor issued an ultimatum?
There are as many reasons to lose weight as there are people. Would you be anxious to drop some weight if you knew the payback would include a lower risk of diabetes, cancer, heart disease, arthritis and lengthen you life span. I’d be willing to bet the answer is yes.
In addition to the health benefits of weight loss, you will also look and feel better. Imagine being able to quit wearing shapeless plus size clothing that looks like baggy tents. Your energy levels will soar and you will be able to move with ease.
I think there are a lot of people out there more concerned with what they look like, than the health consequences of being overweight. This becomes apparent when they finally do try losing weight, they’ll opt for some crazy crash diet plan in an attempt to get slim quick, instead of a healthier regimen they can stick with long-term.
To me, it seems that their main concern isn’t their health. If we all made our health our biggest priority we’d get much better results when trying to lose weight.
The health consequences of obesity or being overweight can make for some pretty dire reading. Some of the ramifications are diabetes, heart disease, breathing problems, cancer, arthritis, reproductive problems, mobility issues, discrimination, depression, and premature death.
It’s strange that even though most people are well aware of the health problems caused by excess weight, it seems to make very little difference.
It seems like everyone you meet would like to lose weight. Well, nearly everyone. Today’s society has influenced the concept of what’s attractive. Being thin is most desirable, especially among women. If you are one of the people that wants or needs to lose weight, you should ask yourself exactly what your motivations are.
Think about why it’s so hard to replace unhealthy habits with good ones. How can you find the motivation needed to change these habits and put yourself first?
