How does my weight impact my risk of cardiovascular disease? So weight very much has multiple effects on the body and if someone is carrying too much weight and being overweight increases the chance of having higher blood pressure, it increases the chance of someone developing diabetes or being at risk of developing diabetes. Someone is more likely to have raised cholesterol and so the combination of the effect of the weight on the development of those conditions leads to the increased risk of heart disease or cardiovascular disease.
