Weight Loss-Why You Should Try To Increase Your Fitness And Lose Weight

Self-confidence is partly about how you look. You want to look good and you can!
If you are overweight think how much better it would be if any attention you get would be positive rather than negative, and how this could be the case provided you make a determined effort to shed those excess pounds.

Not many people talk about this but observation would support the contention that people who are noticeably overweight are treated somewhat less favourably in general. If two ladies apply for the same job as a receptionist and one is overweight, is it likely that she would get the job? People do not like sitting next to an overweight person in a cinema or on a bus because they simply take up more than their share of space.

You do not need to be consigned to an armchair when you get old. If you exercise and keep active, you will have a more satisfying old age and achieve much more. There is no reason why a person can't climb a flight of stairs just because they are in their seventies. Many people retire to a bungalow in their old age but you should make climbing the stairs part of your daily fitness routine. Life is more fun if you can move about freely, and you are more likely to be able to do that if you are not overweight and you do some exercise.

If you can lose excess weight and get to a weight that is right for your height and age you have a chance of a much better day to day life. You will be able to move about and do the things you want. The more activity you do, the more you can expect to do, since exercise helps keep the body supple, the heart active, and the bones strong.

There is not only longevity to consider, but also the quality of one's life. Nobody would want to endure in their middle or later life, the misery of potentially crippling conditions like heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or gall bladder disease.

Research suggests that the longer you remain obese, the greater the risk to your health. The sooner you lose excess weight the longer you are likely to live – really.
There is often a kind of apathy that creeps in when you start a diet but then give up, thinking, "what's the point? Why should I bother?" It does not have to be like that. If you are overweight, it really is important to shed that excess weight.Many people are overweight and would like to lose weight but they can't quite get to the point of committing to a proper diet and sticking with it.
