1) Weight loss helps you get a better night’s sleep
According to results from a recent study conducted by the Department of Medicine at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, “Obese adults who lose at least 5 percent of their body weight report that they sleep better and longer after six months of weight loss.”
Do you find that you’re in a better mood after a good night’s sleep? Getting more sleep and feeling better make losing weight worth it.
2) Weight loss saves you money
People usually only think about the up-front costs when they’re starting a weight loss program. Keep in mind that losing weight is only part of a short-term goal. The overall health benefits which result from weight loss last a lifetime though.
Think about it this way: Over time, the potential costs of medical bills, missed work days, low-productivity work days, short-term disability, workers' compensation and other personal costs start adding up for overweight people. When you approach weight loss from this perspective, then you can see why it's worth it, especially in the long run.
3) Less weight, less pain
As you may already be aware, being overweight is uncomfortable. Carrying excess pounds is especially tough on your joints, so being overweight may also become painful. Shedding those excess pounds will help you avoid or limit the pain caused by the extra stress on your joints. Losing weight may also help protect your joints from any future problems.
A recent study was conducted with overweight adults who suffer from knee osteoarthritis. The results showed that those who lost 10% of their starting weight reported significantly reduced knee pain, and they were able to walk faster and with better mobility.
So, no matter what your main reason is for losing weight, you’ll know it’s worth it for many other good reasons, too.
