What is your reason to be healthy ?

Hi everyone, I’m from WV. I’m. trying to be a nurse and stop gaining weight maybe lose some weight before becoming a nurse. I’d like to have a healthy life style first in order to give advise to the patients about health.

    The alternative sucks.


    Especially when self-inflicted.

    You're young. Do you feel as if being somewhat overweight is not a real problem in your life at this stage?

    I did. I'm lucky. Some of my family and classmates died young from obesity-related afflictions. I've also some centenarian relatives and friends. They are, or were, all slim. One of my friends is now 101 and had been overweight in his 'youth', of about 40, when his wife demanded he lose weight. He did, and has kept it off longer than he ever had it on.
