What Is Weight Loss Management?
Body weight is simply determined by the amount of energy obtained from your food compared to the amount of energy that your body is using. The surplus energy you take in from food and drink is stored as fat.
Reaching and maintaining a healthy weight is important for overall health and can help you prevent and control many diseases and conditions.
The risks of developing these diseases increases the more overweight you are!
