Hi there,
I recently read that there is a connection between big waistline and heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure. Actually obesity and central obesity (big waistline ) are 2 different things. What can hurt your heart is the fat around your belly. You can have a big waistline and have a normal weight. This is quite new to me and I wanted to share the information. It seems that it is very important to know your waistline numbers- it could be life saving.
