Great things can happen for those who lose the extra pounds. The ability to finally touch the floor without becoming short of breath is one of them. Losing the belly fat means a lower likelihood of developing Type 2 diabetes. The person who sets out to lose weight can derive many health benefits by losing weight and keeping it off.
Decreased Shortness of Breath

The extra pounds place a strain on the heart and its ability to pump blood to the lungs. Once the person rids himself of the excess weight, the heart finds a decreased strain to circulate the blood. This helps his lungs to respond and carry oxygen as well at a better rate. The disappearance of shortness of breath can help the person to become more physically active. It may take time for endurance build up, but the chances for better activity is greater if the weight is decreased.
Less Joint Pain
Pain decreases as tension and weight decrease from around the joints. Joints, which once were plagued with increased weight and inflammation ease in their symptoms.

Ability to Exercise
The idea of exercise performing of exercise will be tolerated better by the body once excess pounds have disappeared. The muscle strain decreases as well as the aches and pains of changing the body's appearance and overall health. The person will feel a sense of relief as she feels genuinely better after exercise.
More Energy
Feeling less tired all the time is a sign something is going well in the body. People with excess weight tend to tire more easily than those who have normal weight for their height. Losing weight can make the person feel as though he no longer carries an excessive burden. The heart and lungs feel less tired, and the muscles are less tense.
Clothes Fit Better
Clothes, which once didn't fit or had become tight, are now comfortable to wear. The jeans, which once took effort to zip, can be zipped without the strain of tucking in the belly.
