Most of those suffering from excess body weight would go a long way toward solving their problem if they regularly did moderately vigorous exercise, for instance, 30 minutes per day of swimming,cycling or brisk walking. So what exactly is the problem if a person weighs more than they should? Firstly, this can put too much strain on the joints such as knees and ankles. The health consequences of having excess body fat depend on what part of the body the fat is found on. Fat on the abdominal area is often associated with diabetes and heart disease, whereas there's no apparent connection between those conditions and having fat on the thighs and hips. Being overweight can also give rise to problems apart from those of physical health. In childhood, even more so than later in life, people need to feel that they belong. Children who are rejected and ostracized by their classmates because they're overweight and not fit may develop low self-esteem. Although scientists are still unsure why some people gain weight more easily than others, it's clear that the right food, together with regular exercise, is the only way to lose weight and not put it back on.
大多数遭受肥胖困扰的患者如果通过经常做适度的运动，例如，每天30分钟的游泳，骑自行车或步行来解决这些问题将是一个漫长而又艰巨的过程。那么，如果一个人的重量超过他们所应有的正常体重究竟会发生什么问题呢？首先，关节处会承受过多的压力，如膝盖和脚踝。超重给健康所带来的危害取决于身体中能发现存有脂肪的部分。脂肪在腹部区域往往会与糖尿病和心脏病相联系，但是,这些病症与有脂肪的大腿和臀部之间没有明显的联系。除了身体健康问题外,肥胖还可以引起其它问题。相比于今后的人生,童年时人们更注重自身的从属。这些肥胖的孩子由于超重或不健康从而受他们同学拒绝和排斥,从而导致自卑。虽然科学家还不清楚为什么有些人比其他人更容易长胖，但是很显然，正确的饮食，加上有规律的锻炼，是减肥的唯一途径，并且不会反弹。 ——译文来自: ggpwy
