Now, “
People who lie to themselves about investing are the same as overweight people who blame their genes for their obesity.” Note#2
While Many people see obesity as a minor problem, People should be properly educated on obesity because It causes serious risk to your health, Children become part of the problem,mainly because they can't control what they consume, and It is a problem worldwide.
My topic is on obesity which is pretty much self explanatory.
Obesity is what some of the doctors call as the “New American
Epidemic”. Obesity is, easily, one of america's fastest growing health concern, that not only affects adults but also children. It is also estimated that eight out of ten people over the age of twenty­five are overweight.

My topic matters mainly because it is a major problem in my community and worldwide. Also, many people don’t take this problem serious enough which is why it is a rapid growing health concern. Note#4
Many people see obesity as a minor problem, I see it as a major problem that is actually not just in the america’s but is also a problem worldwide. For example, worldwide obesity has more than doubled since the 1980’s. Also, most of the world’s population lives in countries where being overweight and obese kills more people than being underweight.
Note#5
Second many people should be properly educated on obesity because of the major health problems that it develops. For example, being obese could lead to Type 2 diabetes(also diabetes is a leading cause to early death), Metabolic
Syndrome(is a name for a group of risk factors that raise risk for heart disease and other problems, and lastly Cancer.
Note#6

Finally children become a major part of the problem, simply because they cannot control what they consume their parent’s do. For example if a kid grows up eating fast food and junk foods his whole life he is more than likely to keep eating that way because he adapted to that type of lifestyle instead of him taking a healthier path.
Note#8
My topic is important because it is not only a community issue but also a problem worldwide.
