No one chooses to be overweight..
No one chooses to be overweight. Not consciously. And yet the number of people suffering from this condition has grown over the past 20 years and continues to increase. The National Center for Health Statistics records that 30% of US adults aged 20 and over are obese. That amounts to a staggering 60 million people.
So the one comforting thing you can know as you struggle with your weight is: YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
And, its not only adults who suffer from what the Center for Disease Control (CDC) considers to be a serious health risk, the percentage of overweight youth has tripled since 1989. The CDC reports that "among children and teens aged 6-19 years, 16% (over 9 million young people) are considered overweight".
Now the thing about being overweight is that it is more than just plain uncomfortable. The CDC is concerned about the health implications and there are many.
Being seriously overweight means that you increase the risk of contracting many diseases and conditions that are associated with the increased demands excess weight places on the body. Hypertension, Type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease and stroke are just some of the health risks that plague people with weight problems.

Doubts over obesity pill claims
Some of the health benefits claimed for a new weight loss drug may not be justified, say experts. Rimonabant, launched in the UK last summer, has been shown to aid weight loss by reducing appetite. But a Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin paper suggests claims that it also has an additional positive impact on the body's chemistry have not been proved. However, the manufacturers said the findings had proved consistent across all trials. The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (Nice) is currently appraising the drug for use on the NHS. Manufacturers Sanofi-Aventis claim it has been shown to cut levels of potentially harmful cholesterol, fats and sugars in the blood to a greater extent than would be expected by weight loss alone. In theory, this should help to reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and heart disease. But the DTB paper argued that research had failed to prove that any positive impact on body chemistry was solely down to taking the drug. It was possible, for instance, that it was down to advice given to patients taking the drug to lead a more healthy lifestyle, and take more exercise. The paper also highlighted the fact that in trials rimonabant had no effect on levels of "bad" cholesterol, and little or no effect on blood pressure. It said the drug had not been effectively compared with other, cheaper weight loss drugs, such as Xenical (orlistat) and Reductil (sibutramine), which are both approved for NHS use. (C)BBC
