Chronic Overweight
Understanding Chronic Overweight
Many of us know this experience all too well: gain weight, decide to lose it, deprive ourselves to shed 5, 10, or 15 pounds, then gain it all back plus more. Repeat. Sometimes, this cycle is the catalyst for obesity. We understand. And let’s not overlook the cause and effect of Compulsive Dieting Syndrome.
Technically Speaking…
Chronic overweight is a condition where an individual consistently carries excess body weight over a long period. Unlike temporary weight fluctuations, chronic overweight indicates a sustained imbalance between calorie intake and expenditure. Factors contributing to chronic overweight can include genetics, lifestyle choices, emotional factors, and environmental influences. Addressing this condition requires a comprehensive approach that considers the underlying causes and promotes sustainable changes.
Chronic Overweight and Its Impact on the Body and Wellness
Chronic overweight can significantly impact both physical health and overall wellness. It is associated with an increased risk of developing conditions such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and joint problems due to the extra strain on the body. Additionally, carrying excess weight over a prolonged period can lead to issues such as sleep apnea, reduced mobility, and lower energy levels. The psychological effects, including decreased self-esteem and an increased risk of depression and anxiety, further highlight the importance of addressing chronic overweight for overall well-being.
