During an online discussion, one participant brought up the topic of Suicide. I doubt the topic conjurers up pleasant thoughts. For me, a suicide is an avoidable tragedy that brings tremendous grief.
Yet, the discussion became how all of us that are overweight were committing a slow suicide. We are each alone responsible for the food we eat. We are responsible for the health problems the sugars and fat cause.
Excess weight can cause heart disease, strokes, and so much more. In addition, being over weight can make us miss out on our life.
Mothers and fathers miss out on playing with their children. Grandparents miss out on holding their grandchildren. Many miss out of adventures they are afraid to take. We miss out on the cute clothes and a feeling of self-confidence.
Yes, some shorten their days. I have lost more than one friend to the health problems associated with obesity. One such friend had to have heart surgery, but did not make it through. I still miss my friend.
Don’t leave your family grieving your loss too soon. Take back your health and stop the path towards a slow suicide! Choose life. Enjoy your life to its fullest with optimal health. Set a weight loss goal, if not for you do it for your family. We can help you turn things around.
