• You will be able to live a longer life.

This is not to say, that people with extra weight over their normal weights will not live long. This only means that if you are in your normal weight range, your possibility of living a longer life is heightened. Why? Because you are healthier, you are stronger, you are able to move easily and probably exercise better, you will be less stressed, and you are far from fatal diseases that can just cut your life shorter.
