The Ramifications Of Obesity

When a person is obese, they are usually quite miserable. Even
if they claim that they're happy with their size and how they
look, don't let them fool you. Most severely overweight
individuals will say this, but only because they haven't yet
figured out how to get the weight off and keep it off. Severely
obese people often feel miserable on a daily basis. They have
trouble breathing, tire easily, have difficultly finding
clothes that fit, and suffer from various aches and pains.
These people are also more prone to developing heart disease,
diabetes, insulin resistance, and countless other potentially
life threatening illnesses. Being overweight can also be quite
embarrassing for people. They may be unable to enjoy amusement
park rides because of the inability to fit inside one, or they
may be too large to wear seatbelts in cars and on airplanes.

Obesity is one of those problems that an individual doesn't
have to live with, though. It's not like cancer-most people
can't get rid of cancer, but with obesity, there is a definite
light at the end of the tunnel. All that a person has to do is
eat right and exercise. Sure, it's easier said than done,
especially with all the temptations out there. But if a person
is really motivated and determined to get to a healthy weight,
it can be done. Just take one day at a time, and soon you will
start seeing results.

There are numerous diets out there: The Zone, Adkins, South
Beach, Weight Watchers, and many more. Unfortunately, though,
as most overweight individuals have found out, these diets
don't work for everyone. Sure they work great for some people,
but obviously not for everyone. Many times a person has to
tailor a diet specifically to fit their own body. Lots of
carbohydrates can be great for some people, yet bad for others.
It all depends on the person, what they enjoy eating, and their
metabolism.

It may take something very drastic to really get a person
motivated enough to dedicate the rest of their life to being
healthy. Let's face it: dieting is hard, but people shouldn't
look at losing weight as dieting, but as a new way of eating.
The reason for this is because so many people will diet long
enough to lose weight, and then as soon as they reach they
reach their goal weight, they go back to their old eating
habits, which quickly piles back on the weight. Losing weight
and being healthy has to be a lifetime change and commitment.
