If you are overweight and over the age of thirty, there is a very good chance that you are insulin resistant. Losing 7 percent of your body weight, and walking for 2.5 hours weekly, will cut your risk of developing adult onset diabetes by 58%.
If you are a 200 pound female, 7% is only 14 pounds. The message to me is clear. Even losing small amounts of weight have a big impact on your health, and your pocketbook! So take that as encouragement to eat right and be physically active. It is worth the effort that you put into it.
