It never too late to loose weight

Excess weight gain can be experienced by any age group.
Babies add weight while they are still young. If they exceed the recommended weight, the mother poses the baby to a risk of health complications. Teens are sometimes the worst hit by weight gain. During the teens, the body is involved in many changes. Some changes may be physical while others can be internal. Food products may begin to produce more fats and energy to supplement the fast developing body. With the excessive food consumption to provide energy, teens start developing bellies and layers of muscles (stored fat) which become visible around the waist.
The elderly are also not lucky. Little movement is involved during old age. The body’s metabolic reaction is not as fast as it was during the young age. As the elderly feed with little or no body exercise the body gains weight easily and this may lead to heart problems, high blood pressure, diabetes among others.
Loosing weight can be possible in any stage of life.
Babies can be feed with cereals with less fat content. By weaning them reduces the amount of fat gained from the mothers’ milk. Suckling can be substituted with other nutritional drinks after feeding.
By placing babies on support walkers and engaging them in playful mode, the body would be triggered to workout slowly and in turn use up the stored fats.
Teens are strong and active. Teens can loose belly fat through many ways. Exercising for teens is a good start. Weight lifting, swimming or hiking is enough to force the body to get rid of excessive fats through applying pressure on the muscles. Reducing or dropping food products that play a major role in increasing the fat content in the body is also another way to cut down weight gain.
The elderly are more suited to walking to loose excessive weight. Owing to the body state, they may not be able to move fast or lift weights. Eating a balanced diet with food products with minimal fat content can be a positive method towards dealing with weight gain among the elderly.
