There are three signs of old age. The first is your loss of memory. I forget the other two.

I can't help the jokes, it's better than crying

Now Twiggy has revealed that she is battling the middle aged spread, and limits herself to one pudding a month to beat the bulge.  Sounds a bit extreme to me, it goes against the Easy Diets I'm promoting.

Wrinkles and creaking joints are bad enough, but for most people it's middle age spread that really signals the downward spiral of old age.  I've started on that but the diet tips I'm promoting has me covered.

I found some a really interesting Poll from Gallup I want to Share

Easy Diets, Do They Exist?

As Americans, we are getting heavier, we continue to gain weight at a rapid rate (there is too much good food out there), many are going from being overweight to becoming obese.   The human race has made some changes for the better over a period of time. Due to all these advancements life has become extremely lazy.  Our Weight is largely determined by the balance between how many calories you consume and the amount of energy you burn working out or in everyday activities we need to exist. The are terms being used to scare us for good reason, Morbid obesity, also referred to as clinically severe obesity or extreme obesity, is a chronic disease, even if it's classified as a disease it's something we can work against, that afflicts approximately 9 million adult Americans, that's adults and children too.

Weighing too much, overweight or obese, may increase your risk for developing many health problems. You may be at risk for:

• type 2 diabetes
• coronary heart disease and stroke
• metabolic syndrome
• certain types of cancer
• sleep apnea
• osteoarthritis
• gallbladder disease
• fatty liver disease
• pregnancy complications

We always assume the since Mom or Dad are heavy that something we can't help. Even without a known family history, certain diseases are statistically proven to occur at higher rates in obese individuals. Obesity is now recognized as a major risk factor for coronary heart disease, which can lead to heart attack. According to CDC researchers, an estimated 300,000 American deaths a year are related to obesity, due to various reasons more and more people become overweight or obese. Something not to forget, Being overweight causes heart disease.  Being overweight boosts the risk of dying from diabetes and kidney disease but not cancer or heart disease

Overweight and obesity are now defined by Body Mass Index (BMI) values (weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters). Below 25 is considered normal, 25 to 29.9 is overweight, 30 to 34.9 is mild obesity, 35 to 39.9 is moderate obesity, and 40 and over is severe obesity. A BMI of 30 would correspond to 20 percent over ideal weight.

I mentioned the disease can be fought and defeated, increased levels of exercise can reduce but not eliminate the risk of heart disease in overweight and obese women and men, a U.S. study finds. If you weigh 20 per cent more than your desirable weight you have an urgent health problem. Medical science now recognizes the intimate relationship between obesity and disease.

I AM NOT A Doctor, I have a wife that I care about and we've talking about a family, I have researched, that you should gain between 15 and 25 pounds by the end of your pregnancy (guys that's women only), at a rate of approximately 2 to 3 pounds a month, primarily in your second and third trimesters. For women who are pregnant, being overweight can cause a variety of complications. For Women and Men who are trying to conceive, being overweight can be an obstacle that greatly affects their chances of successfully conceiving. Healthy weight women have an easier time getting pregnant than overweight or underweight women. Studies show that women whose body mass index (BMI) is below 20 or above 30 have a harder time getting pregnant, so it's a good idea to try to get yourself into the 20 to 30 range before you start trying.

There are lots of reasons for people who are overweight or obese to lose weight. To be healthier. To look better. To feel better. To have more energy. No matter how peaceful your nature, when it comes to the battle of the bulge, you have to put up a good fight. In our eat-and-run, massive-portion-sized world, healthy weight loss can be a struggle.  Does this sound familiar? You got tired of hearing your doctor and family bug you about losing weight to prevent or manage type 2 diabetes. So, you got a two-week diet plan from a friend. You started gung-ho. The first few days were great. Then you found there were nights you didn't have time to fix your food and the family dinner. By the weekend your family wanted to have pizza. And the diet went out the door when you left for your favorite pizza place.
