Humorous Weight Loss Quotes

I hope you had a good laugh today. We are still coping with a global pandemic and many of us are dealing with the COVID 15 – the 15 pounds (or more) that we have gained during these stressful times. Laughter can help to relieve stress according to the Mayo Clinic. 

On a serious note, obesity is a risk factor for many conditions, including COVID-19. But you only need to take baby steps, one day at a time. You can get healthier by losing just five per cent of your weight. 

The only real answer to better health is diet and exercise. The first step is the hardest but you can do it. You can have a healthy lifestyle and achieve your weight loss goals.

Focus on getting healthy, and the rest will follow. I still have a lot of weight to lose, but my blood pressure is normal, my cholesterol level is normal, and my blood sugar level is normal. So I am laughing all the way to the scale!

You can do it, my friend, with diet, exercise, and some laughter.
