Individuals who are overweight or obese have a high risk for chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol. A person that is overweight should try to avoid gaining additional weight and increase their daily activity level. Additionally, if you are overweight with other risk factors (such as high LDL cholesterol, low HDL cholesterol, or high blood pressure), you should try to lose weight. Even a small weight loss (just 10 percent of your current weight) may help in lowering the risk of disease. In order to lose weight, you simply need to increase your daily activity or consume fewer calories than those needed to maintain your weight.
