Risks Of Being Overweight
While most people are inclined to lose weight to look and feel better, many people are instructed by their doctors to lose weight because they are at risk for developing a disease. Or may already have developed a disease and their doctor wants to stop the progression of the overweight related disease and perhaps even cure it. Extra weight can put you at higher risk for:
- type 2 diabetes (high blood sugar)
- high blood pressure
- heart disease and stroke
- some types of cancer
- sleep apnea (when breathing stops for short periods during sleep)
- osteoarthritis (wearing away of the joints)
- gallbladder disease
- irregular periods
- problems with pregnancy such as high blood pressure or increased risk for cesarean section (c-section)
