  • Reduced risk of chronic diseases, such as heart disease and diabetes
  • Better sleep
  • A reduction in body aches and pains
  • A boost in self-confidence and self-esteem
  • More energy
  • Improved mood


Though weight loss is good for your health and wellness, losing weight may take more than just eating less and moving more.
