Being overweight can lead to a number of serious health problems:

1. Increased risk of heart attack, stroke, diabetes and sleep apnoea.

2. Increased risk of some cancers (eg. breast, prostate and bowel cancer)

3. Joint pain: Extra weight puts added pressure on your back, hips and knees, leading to pain, increased wear and tear, and arthritis

Maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise can help reduce risk of these negative consequences.  But a lot of people find losing weight difficult.
