If you eat a lot of nutritious foods and you work out, it may not matter if you can't fit into your jeans. It's not the number on the scale or the size of your khakis that will kill you, after all it's the elevated blood pressure and the cholesterol and other nasty problems that come with moving to the relaxed-fit rack. I you eat well and work out regularly and walk, what does it matter if you can't wriggle into slim cut jeans? the idea that being a string bean is the best thing to be is to simplistic. I think it's possible to be large and fit. to be sure, no one is ever likely to deny the fact that staying lean and active is one of the best routes to a long life. many studies point out that excess weight is associated not only with a lot of frequency cited dangers diabetes, stroke, heart disease, sleep apnea and joint problems among them but also with many less frequent cited ones, such as cancer. better to accept the idea that weight control is multifront battle, with exercise,diet, understanding physicians and patients willing to try new things all part of the campaign, this fight is won by persistence.
