Although these two terms can be used interchangeably, but there a thin line of difference between the two.
Let's try and look at them more closely.
We all have fat in our bodies. It is a basic requirement for our hormonal, reproductive and immune systems to function optimally. It is also a source of energy to carry out numerous activities in our day to day lives. This is all good as long as the fat content of our bodies are within limits and does not interfere with our movements, flexibility or become a source of embarrassment to our bodies!
Now, we all have heard of the term 'Body Mass Index' or BMI. This is a score that is arrived at by dividing our weight in kilograms by the square of our height in metres or in units it would be - kg/msq. The optimal BMI is for a person is 25. Let's look at an example for a better understanding. Suppose a person weighs 80 kgs and is 6 feet tall (1.83 mts.), so this person's BMI would be - 80/1.83x1.83 that is 80/3.35 which equals to 23.88. This is an optimal BMI for this person.
But what happens when our BMI crosses the magical 25 score? Well, any score above and between 25 and 30 is considered overweight or pre-obese. And this is certainly not a range where we would want our BMI to be! It is like standing on thin ice. A little nudge here, a little push there and you could just cross the threshold to being obese.
Let's face it, if your BMI is between 25 and 30, you are putting on weight. There is no question about it. And you will start to feel the difference as those layers of fat start to accumulate on those areas of your body which you try so so very hard to keep slim and trim. You will feel a marked difference in your movements, which will at first become a little labored but become more tedious as you continue to put on those extra kilos. Your flexibility will decrease, as the accumulated fat will restrict the free movements of your body. And ultimately those extra kilos will start showing on your overall physical appearance.
As I had mentioned in my previous post that, as a woman, you have more fat burning capacity compared to men, but by some quirk of nature, this mechanism backfires and you are left with those extra kilos which are so hard to get rid of.
So you dive headlong into a diet program, join a gym or maybe even take the recourse of dietary supplements. But are you certain these weight loss methods will give you long term, lasting results? I mean this is what you will be looking for in a weight loss program, won't you? To get back the body you once had?
What if I told you of a weight loss program that will help you to lose at least 10 pounds within just 3 months? And the remarkable part is that, the extra pounds that you lose will have gone for good! This program is simple, effective and economical and it really WORKS!
I would love to share the FREE video with you right here, but I feel you need to understand a little bit more about weight management and the various complications that can be avoided by maintaining an optimal BMI.
So keeping reading my posts and I assure very soon I will reveal to you the revolutionary method that will help you to get back the body you once had and keep it that way for good!
