diabetes, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, and countless diseases in body.
Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it may have an adverse effect
on health. It is defined by body mass index (BMI).

trainer should be for things other than fat loss.
My neighbor in New York got lazy a few years ago and added 50lbs of fat to her 6’2″ frame. The day she decided to stop
making excuses, she dusted off her running shoes and started down the street. She made it one block before her knees
were on fire due to excess bulk on body.

diabetes.
The link between body and mind isn’t new but the latest science is compelling. A 2010 study found cognitive function
showed negative associations with obesity on measures. One hypothesis cites the deteriorating white matter that
surrounds nerve fibers in the brain, which send signals around the organ. This white matter sheathing has been found
more damaged in the brains of the obese.
