it puts strain on your heart and respiratory systems for one. All that added weight causes your heart to have to pump that much harder to move blood through your body. Plus there's always a higher risk of many conditions, including cancer.

Being overweight (and underweight) are unhealthy because it puts unnecessary stress and strain on the heart and other body systems.

The fat around your stomach is what is really unhealthy it is full of toxins. Not only that usually being overweight goes hand in hand with heart disease diebetes and high blood pressure.

Your body is not used to dealing with that much fat stored inside of it. You're at risk for high blood pressure, heart disease, and diabetes.
