Why is it important to achieve a healthy weight?
Losing weight isn’t just about vanity or aesthetics. When you’re overweight or obese, you’re at a greater risk of many health problems, these include:
- Heart disease and stroke
- Hypertension
- Type 2 diabetes
- High cholesterol
- Arthritis
- Sleep apnea
- Depression and anxiety
Being overweight or obese can also interfere with fertility. If you’re trying to get pregnant or hope to in the near future, achieving a healthy weight should be a top priority. Weight gain can also accelerate as you near or move through menopause.
Why should I consider a medically supervised weight-loss program?
