I never used to worry about my health when I was younger. Sure, I didn't like to be fat, but for the most part, I didn't feel bad or think something might be wrong with me. (I also have been notoriously poor at paying attention to my body's signals so it took me a while to figure out when I was feeling bad.) But the last few years I have been worried about my health. I've felt a loss of muscle tone (yes, there is muscle under all this fat) and I started to notice when I just wasn't feeling well. And in that process of not feeling well, I've become aware of some health issues that I've had for a long time, that I want to do something about.
1. PCOS
2. Metabolic syndrome
3. Obesity
Those two diseases are enough because they come with a whole host of symptoms and side effects that I would really rather do without, thank you very much.
They also lead to other health problems that I don't want including:
- Heart disease
- Diabetes
- Infertility
- Cancer
So, I'm sending my list of health problems packing now. I'm living a new life and that life does not include them.
Bon voyage, health problems. May you never visit these shores again.
