1. 1. Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is when tissue that protects the joints wears away. Common areas are the knees, hips,
and lower back. Extra weight can put more pressure and wear on joints, causing
pain.
2. Sleep Apnea
A person who has sleep apnea may have more fat stored around
the neck. This can narrow the airway, making it hard to breathe.
3. Obesity
Hypoventilation Syndrome
Obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) is a breathing
disorder that affects some obese people.
OHS can lead to serious health problems and may even cause
death.
4. Reproductive
Problems
Obesity can cause menstrual issues and infertility in some
women.
5. Gallstones
Gallstones are hard pieces of stone-like material that form
in the gallbladder. They're mostly made of cholesterol. Gallstones can cause
stomach or back pain.
6. Nonalcoholic
fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
The BMI
correlates with the degree of liver damage, that is, the greater the BMI the
greater the liver damage.
The idea of this post is not to scare people, but to make us
realise that we need to take action. It’s not just about fitting into a size 8
or 10 dress, it’s about staying healthy. I hope you’re all ready to take on the challenge
Talk to you soon… Have a great week
