Try to lower your BMI

Unfortunately your BMI is too high

BMI stands for Body Mass Index. Your BMI tells you whether you have a healthy weight in combination with your height. The BMI is applicable for people between 2 and 70 years of age with a normal physique. When your BMI is healthy, you have less chance of physical complaints. Less risk of cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes.

If your BMI is too high, it's time to lose some weight.

It is not so much fats and carbohydrates (in normal amounts) that are the culprits in the case of weight gain. The point is that you take in less energy than you use. So pay attention to what and how much you eat and exercise enough.
