Obesity and Diabetes 2?

Posted by beeman | Prevention Of Obesity | Monday 2 November 2009 1:05 pm

I never thought I was fat, my family has a history with weight issues, so I have always kept a steady workout schedule and tried to eat healthy.

Recently, I have not been working out as much, and since it was around Halloween I had ate more candy than I usually would. But as recently as Halloween and my lack of working out, a discoloration on my neck occurred, I looked it up and it said it was commonly related to Obesity and Diabetes 2…

I am pretty scared actually, and was wondering if anyone could offer any information about prevention and how to get rid of this discoloration!

I have gone back to working out, and am currently working on returning to my healthier diet…Is that going to be enough?

    The marks/discolorouration that you’re speaking of sound like Acanthosis nigricans. This can come about as a result of obesity or type 2 diabetes, but it can also come about for other reasons, so don’t start panicking. It can also occur in quite healthy people.

    The following pages will give you more information on this condition … much better than I could hope to do, so please take a look.

    There’s no specific treatment for it, except to treat the underlying cause for it’s initial appearance.
