Are you sure you are overweight?

Being overweight is generally defined as exceeding the recommended weight for one's height and build. Excessive body weight though, is not as much of a problem as excessive body fat. Excessive body fat is a health problem, because it can lead to a number of serious disorders, including heart disease, diabetes, stroke, high blood pressure, and certain kinds of cancer.

Overeating, lack of exercise, heredity, glandular malfunctions, diabetes, hypoglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, emotional tension, and boredom can all contribute to excess weight.

Weight loss and weight management is the most easily understood principle of health. To sound practical, all that is necessary is to make sure the calories consumed are fewer than the calories spent on exercise and daily activities. Weight management and safe weight loss for a lifetime is far more complicated. Regaining lost weight does not simply reflect a lack of willpower, it is a common problem for many people, and many feel discouraged and develop a low self esteem as a result.

But don't give up! With knowledge, motivation and the right resources, you can lose weight safely too.

BEFORE you start a weight loss program involving any purchases of programs and products -assess or "size" yourself up. Physically, mentally, emotionally.

MARK or START by analyzing your overall health , record these results as they can be used as a guide. Take all of your physical measurements, as you will find that you will be pleasantly suprised that you will lose inches first.

DETERMINE or SET wellness goals NOT weight loss goals.  It's easier to set wellness goals eg: lower blood pressure or cholesterol than to lose XXX number of pounds as the XXX number of pounds may not vanish as quick as you would like, however the state of overall wellness will keep you motivated.  It's a mental game.  

GO visit your medical practitioner or doctor armed with the overall health guide results and measurements,  discuss both and take any other necessary tests suggested eg: blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose, potassium (electrolytes) levels, so you can be monitored safely through your transformation.  Critically, it is imperative to monitor your body processes from head to toe as you do not want to trade off the loss of weight with other health difficulties such as the loss of muscle and critical body fluids. You want lose weight safely and maintain good health for the rest of your life.
