A big motivation for losing weight should be for health reasons. You don’t have to be a health coach or a doctor to figure out that we are living in an overweight and obese nation. We are suffering in epic proportions from diseases that our ancestors 100 years ago never had or even heard of. Convenience isn't always good when it comes to food.
For women if your waist is more than 35 inches at the belly button; and for men if is more than 40 inches, you are within the high risk category of heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and stroke. It is time to lose weight.
