Diabeties and Obesity... What you can do!

Hi There:

I guess we all know that diabetes is now an epidemic. It is generally the outcome of the road we travel through poor food choices to chronic overweight and obesity.

You get overweight because you take in more calories than you consume. It’s just that simple.

But what drives us to overeat is the real monster lurking in the shadows.

Being overweight can seriously endanger your health. If you’re overweight and obese you are at high risk for developing a number of potentially serious health problems.

Being overweight and being obese are just points on the scale. Obesity is a degree of being overweight. Hit 20% or more above your ideal body weight, and you’re considered obese. You hit overweight on the way to becoming obese.

None of these scales are universal for every body type, but they’re a pretty good indicator of where we’re headed. Body weight can come from muscle, bone, fat and/or body water … but it is the fat that puts us at risk for heart attack and our eating habits that set us up for diabetes.

We take steps along the path. Most obese people were once thin. Often it begins after pregnancy when the added weight just won’t come off. Soon we surrender and accept that we’re a few sizes larger… then a few more… another new wardrobe; and so the game plays out.

The problem really is in “how” we are eating not “how much”!

There are serious dangers to being overweight:

High blood pressure.When you have excess body fat, your body retains sodium. When your body retains sodium, blood volume increases and blood pressure rises. High blood pressure causes your heart to work faster, which in turn becomes dangerous to your health.

Your probability of stroke increases—often dramatically

Osteoarthritis. Excess weight increases the stress on our joints and erodes the protective cartilage.

Weak Pelvic Muscles

Difficulty breathing, walking or sitting Accumulations of fat don’t leave enough room for your organs in your abdominal cavity.

Gallstones Overweight people appear to be more prone to gallstones.

Diabetes The Number One cause of Type 2 Diabetes is not obesity but the process that leads to obesity. A high carb, high glycemic diet sets up the condition for a body that is resistant to insulin. Eventually you need more insulin than the body can produce and you need to find it elsewhere, usually via injection. You have become diabetic.

Scary, isn't it?
But there’s hope on the horizon!

If you are obese or overweight then you know that your health is at risk. If you have contracted diabetes then your life is endangered.

Would you like to learn how to overcome these challenges?

I have recently written a book entitled “Lose Weight – Never Go Hungry” which lays out a plan for overcoming carbohydrate addiction.
