Overweight and health is a gradual thing, it's not that one pound would mean the difference between healthy and unhealthy.

But then there's another pound, then another, then another. And suddenly you've added so much weight that your knees start to suffer, you blood pressure increases, and your risk of getting Diabetes gets higher.

So, you can be a little overweight and it won't mean much for your health.

But overweight is never a good thing, even if it doesn't look like it's hurting you at the moment.
