I have typically been heavier than I should be.
When I was a teenager, I was a bit larger than most other men, plus I used to make efforts to keep our weight down.
Once I got married, though, I became less active plus I ate more officially, plus I cooked for every meal. As a result, our weight shot up. Then pregnancy came along, plus that typically swings the body, plus it became increasingly tough to stop gaining weight. Now that all those afternoons are behind me, I am well inside middle age, plus still overweight, the medical problems have started. Thus, I have begun seriously changing our eating habits plus am looking for a way to become more active. As a result, I lost fifty pounds a couple of years ago. I have kept thirty of those off, so I have lost thirty pounds. Anyway, there has been a benefit I never expected! My cooling bills have decreased by about twenty percent! It is a medical fact that overweight people tend to hang onto heat more, so they usually appreciate to keep the a/c blasting. I used to set our control component about four degrees lower than I do now, plus the change in control component setting is reflected in our utility bill each week. In the winter, I do admit that I would appreciate to use more heating. I used to never want to turn on the heater, but nowadays, I would appreciate it. I use restraint, though, plus choose to curl up under a blanket instead of flipping up the control component in winter.
