Obesity is a life-threatening medical condition that causes heart attacks, heart failure, diabetes, and other deadly diseases, but obesity is also painful for day-to-day life. If you struggle with obesity, you may have difficulty with everyday activities like driving to the grocery store, climbing stairs, walking in the park, and playing with your kids.
