Obese? Lose Lots of Weight, Watch Your Heart Risks Drop

THURSDAY, Sept. 30, 2021 (HealthDay News) — It’s no secret that excess weight is bad for the heart. But a new study suggests that obesepeople who lose a substantial amount of weight may reverse the related cardiovascular risks.

Researchers found the odds for high blood pressure and elevated cholesterol were similar in formerly obese Americans who were now at a healthy weight and people who had always had a healthy weight. 

Diabetes risk — another common companion of obesity — improved, too. However, while the risk was lessened with weight loss, it was still high in people who had been obese, investigators said.

The hardships caused by the pandemic can be even tougher to deal with if you feel isolated because of social distancing. If you feel sad, hopeless, or cranky a lot of the time, it’s important to connect with friends or family and talk about how you’re feeling. If you feel down for several days, or you have thoughts of hurting yourself, reach out to your doctor or a mental health hotline for help.

Many aspects of the pandemic can make you more anxious or worried than usual. If you have trouble sleeping or notice changes in your appetite or energy, it’s a good idea to take breaks from the news and social media and find time for hobbies and exercise, even if it’s just doing some stretching or taking a daily walk.

Elder Ballard –

I am just overwhelmed with the Lord’s goodness and His trust that He has in you and me. We are all ordinary members of the Church. None of us are superstars. We are just God’s children trying to do the right thing for the right reason. We are trying to raise our families the right way so they will love the Lord and want to strive to keep His commandments. In the process, we have some wonderful, choice privileges and opportunities.

When our final judgment comes, it won’t be the number of meetings we attend, the number of meetings we conducted, or all the visits we made. Instead, the Lord will be deeply appreciative of those seeking and helping others along the covenant path.

Jesus Christ is our brother and our best friend. He loves us and has shown us the way. The things you and I need to find happiness are contained in striving to keep His commandments and striving to be like Him as much as we can. Each day is an opportunity to touch a life, to reach out to someone who needs you and offer a word of encouragement.

As vezes penso que as belezas que o Pai deixou para nós foram para nós lembrar de sermos felizes!

Ele decorou a terra para ser um ambiente mais ameno e agradável para nós. Colocou flores , que refletem sua personalidade e bom gosto!
