Today? Perhaps not. Tomorrow? Absolutely.

Fun hits the key points. The effects of excess weight on the body are cumulative. Carrying around excess weight has the effect of accelerating the aging process. Given your age, height and weight you will be facing challenges of age in your thirties when many women will still be in their prime. You should set a goal of the target weight for your height and body type plus not more than ten pounds. Each pound of excess weight you have equates to four excess pounds of stress on the hips, knees and ankles with each step you take. One of the effects of diabetes, which increases dramatically with weight, is sexual dysfunction. There are other, and worse, effects.

Do yourself a favor and get this under control.
