Each day in the United States,
million of Americans say to themselves “I need to lose weight.” Are you one of those individuals? While many of the individuals who tell
themselves that they need to lose weight do need to lose weight, not all
do. So, the question that many ask
themselves is “do I really need to lose weight?” If that is a question that you have asked
yourself before, you will want to continue reading on.
One of the many signs that
you may need to lose weight is if you are obese. Many individuals do not realize that there is
a difference between being overweight and being obese. While different
healthcare professionals have different definitions for obese, it is often said
that those who are thirty or forty pounds overweight are obese. If you are obese, you shouldn’t only be
worried about your appearance, but your health as well. Obesity has been linked to multiple health
complications, including the early onset of death.
Another one of the many signs
that you should lose weight is if you have been told that you need to do
so. Whether your physician recommended
losing weight or if someone that you know on a personal level has, it is
advised that you at least take their suggestions into consideration.
Unfortunately, many individuals are embarrassed or become upset when they are
told that they need to lose weight. What
you need to remember is that the individual mentioning your weight to you
likely isn’t as concerned with your appearance as they are with your health.
Another sign that you may
want to think about losing weight is if you are finding that your clothes no
longer fit you. Of course, it is normal
for some individuals to gain weight or to have their weight fluctuate, but you
may want to think about joining a weight loss program or developing your own
weight loss plan if you find that your clothes no longer fit or are difficult
to get into. Unfortunately, many
individuals do not just have a small weight gain. Small weight gain often leads
to more, which could have a negative impact on your health. It is also important to mention the cost of
new clothes, which you may not be able to afford.
If you find many simple tasks
or activities, like walking up a flight of stairs, difficult, you may want to
think about losing weight. Of course,
becoming out of breath from simple activities may not necessarily just be a
weight problem, but there is a good chance that it is. When you lose weight,
even just a little bit of it, you will likely find it easier to do many of the
activities that you love or even the tasks that you need to do, like take your
kids to the park.
The above mentioned signs are
just a few of the many signs that you may need to lose weight. Should you wish to lose weight, you are
advised to proceed with caution. There are a number of weight loss products on
the market, like diet pills or exercise equipment, which do not work. To save
yourself money and to protect your health, you may want to consider consulting
with your physician before starting any weight loss program, even one that you
develop yourself.
