So I’ve struggled with this most of my life so my heart goes out to every woman or man who have had weight troubles or suffered because of it. I think being overweight not only handicaps you from wearing clothes that you want or look the way you want and suffer medical problems, but it also has a terrible psychological effect too. It really hampers your self-esteem and makes you superconscious. It makes you wonder if people are laughing at you every time you step up on the stage or they’re judging you because of the way you look. All that extra flab is sure to bother you. Every time you go shop and don’t fit into your favorite dress, or if you do you don’t look as good in it as you want. But then again, unless and until you have some serious medical issues, and if you’re actually determined to lose those extra pounds, it’s pretty possible to shed it too. Here’s a list of how.

Cardio is well, the first and obvious choice if you want to lose weight. And the good thing is that it will help you lose weight all over.
