  Hi leahjacques
  when you are overweight, there are more chances for you to get diseases such as diabetes or cancer or heart attacks. Also the immune system slows down and that makes the person very vulnerable to infections. Being overwright causes the body functions to go berserk! That is the reason, over weight don’t live very long. sometimes being overweight is due to the generics of the person and sometimes it’s due to lifestyle.
