Obesity is not a person s private problem anymore. It claims 300,000 lives each year. Heart disease, Type II diabetes, sleep apnea, reflux disease, urinary incontinence, joint pain, back problems, and infertility are all common co-morbid conditions that effect obese people. Meanwhile, these people need to take care of their health as best they can. At any given time, between 33 to 40 percent of women and 20 to 24 percent of men are trying to lose weight.
Some people can lose weight through a diet and exercise program.
But for others, these diet plans often fail to produce the desired results, or, weight is lost and then regained.
