I am off to Las Vegas today to talk at an antiaging conference about obesity and aging. The "outside" of us, i.e. the aesthetic appearance is dramatically altered by weight loss. Our patients who lose significant amounts of weight look up to a decade, if not more, younger. It is amazing to see the physical change and how much more youthful someone appears after weight loss.
"inside"...i.e. the internal organs are also considerably helped by weight loss. The heart, joints, lungs etc are incredibly improved by losing weight. These organs and joints will allow us to live longer in a healthier state.
There are many reasons to lose weight and certainly from an "aging" perspective, it is incredibly helpful to shed those pounds.
Will write you from Vegas!!!
