STAY TUNED FOR MORE! HEALTH TIPS OF THE DAY!!

Metabolism refers to all the physical and chemical processes inthe body that create and use energy, such as:
*Digesting food and nutrients
*Eliminating waste
*Circulating the blood
*Controlling body temperature
*Contracting muscles
*Functioning of the brain and nerves

WEIGHT GAIN
You gain weight when the fat cells in your body either expand (because they are storing extra calories), or when they increase in number.  Each of us is born with a certain number of fat cells.  This impacts your weight for the rest of your life.  However, if you overeat and do not get enough physical activity-particularly during childhood and teens-you can actually develop more fat cells.
When you lose weight, your fat cells contract-but unfortunately you don't lose any!  This is one reason why it is easy to gain weight back.  This is also why it is important to keep children from becoming overweight in the first place.
The most common cause of weight gain is fairly simple: your energy input (the calories you eat) is greater than your energy output (the calories your burn).  Also the type of calories....too many high-calorie, high-fat foods contributes to weight gain and loss of tone no matter how much you exercise!
Here is your DESIRABLE WEIGHT (naked no clothes on)for a small framed woman.  If you are of medium frame than add about 5 lbs. to the low end and about 10 to the high end or just let me know your build and height and I will add that in!
