The world has 815 million people who are thin and under-nourished. It also has 600 million people who are obese, and 1.9 billion who are overweight. So which category do you belong in. Be honest.
It's not so much about BMI...it's about how healthy your heart is. Do you get one hour's exercise a day? Do you get your heart rate up to about the 120 range for a bit? Most people die of heart disease. What are you doing about it?
I like todo HIIT training. My puppy helps with the sprints and walking. He loves to go fast - and then stop suddenly to sniff at some deer or wild pig tracks. Makes for a fun run each day!

Regular brisk walking, sometimes when asked i run with my girl.
Cancer isn't a protective factor against CVD, oestrogen is.
At ca 65 years of age, due to menopause and decreasing levels of oestrogen, women get the same risk to get some cardio-vascular disease, oftenmost acute myocardial infarction (AMI) as men.
There is something with oestrogen that keeps our vessels clean. If you maintain relatively healthy life style, your risk to get CVD before 65 would be very low.

well, allthough I don't eat too much I am fat, because all the water and beer I drink won't leave the body. I'm thirsty most of the time, and of course why drink water when you can drink beer, if the effect is the same. They call it edema, so I have to wear elastic socks. I was born with it, also with pddnos, a kind of autism. So I ain't perfect, but I can make love as the best stallion in the stable.

Bit like that around here , my seven work dogs have a wide age difference , can be rather exciting going after them when they bolt chasing pigs , never know just how it's going to end .
MisterForYou: We evolved on the plains of Africa, hunting game and trekking to new pastures. You must walk to live. An hour a day is better than an apple a day.
I I agree , but i prefer a brisk walk unless shamed into a run
mollybaby: You like curvy? Is that what you are trying to say?
A nice Shapley body ! Basically a woman's body! I'd rather her slightly overweight, than underweight . Some women spend so much time trying to perfect their bodies, they become a little "dusty", when it comes to dating .

I'd prefer a man who cares about his body rather than a couch potato with a beer gut.
