Being overweight or obese can have a negative effect on your blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol. In fact fundamental to the treatment of high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia) is getting the individual's weight down to within the normal range as measured by BMI, the Body Mass Index. The Health Tracking section of this Insights For Health website allows you to track each of these measures. If any of these are abnormally high for you, it is likely that they will move closer to normal as you lose weight. This can be another benefit you derive from getting your weight under control.
