Women play an important role in the future of society. At 280 pounds, I was unaware of how
important our eating habits really are to society's future! Because women are the primary teachers
of children and children learn from their environments, weight loss for women is important for
healthy children.
In a report by the Centers for Disease Control in 2006, research shows the link between the health
of women and that of children. From early adulthood to maturity, weight loss for women plays a
positive role in the health of our children, especially when the right types of foods are eaten.
Pregnant women can help their unborn children by following the recommendations of their doctor
for adequate weight gain during pregnancy. Adequate weight gain can help reduce the risk of
gestational diabetes during pregnancy. Gestational diabetes can lead to large babies, delivery
complications and place your baby at risk for blood sugar problems after birth. Also, women who
experience gestational diabetes have a higher risk of acquiring type 2 diabetes as they age.
Obesity and pregnancy can present certain risks to both you and your baby. By following your
doctor's advice, you can prevent or reduce the risk of these complications.
As you mature, it is important to follow healthy weight loss plans to maintain energy and supply
your body with essential nutrients. Nutrients such as calcium, carbohydrates and protein help
maintain healthy bodies. Calcium helps prevent osteoporosis or thinning of the bones which can
lead to fractures as we age.
Remember that healthy eating is important along with increasing activity for weight loss and long
term weight management. Your child will learn this healthy habit from watching you exercise as
well.
Weight loss for women is an important part of keeping society strong. Health promoting attitudes
and behaviors such as healthy eating and exercise are simple things women can to do ensure
good health for their children. Starting young and being consistent can help you and your child live
longer by reducing health risks associated with overweight and obesity.
