I want to preface this post by saying this is NOT intended as a “fat shaming” post. I have always struggle with my weight. I thought it was good to share because I have never thought about it from this perspective and the impact obesity has on the inside of the body was absolutely eye-opening to me (I know what it does, but never really thought about it). We can easily see the outward effects of obesity, but not the inward ones. ******************* This image shows a 250 lb woman on the left and a 120 lb woman on the right. We can see weight gain from the outside, but we usually can't see what is going on from the inside. Shocking, right? Look at the fat surrounding the organs in the woman on the left. Notice the fat around her heart and her brain. Do you see the compression around the stomach and internal organs which can definitely contribute to GERD/Reflux and indigestion? Now, look at the compressed knee joints and imagine the added pressure and weight being placed on them. It’s hard to deny the effects of obesity when you can actually see the impact. If I wasn’t already motivated to be heathy, this sure would help. I want to be healthy so I can do things with and be around for my kids/family. If you are ready to make a lifestyle change send me a message and ai will help you get started! 😊 #shinefromtheinsideout #sometimesbeingamomishard #needmotivation #busymomma https://www.instagram.com/p/Btk-vQBgMMW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d4hvfes7dstx
