Fighting the Obesity Epidemic One Person at a Time

By Nate Barnett

We live in a world full of obese people. That is really no surprise to most of us. With the obesity rate on the rise there is no doubt that America is facing an obesity epidemic. Most of the super obese know it is a true problem and they are definitely a part of it. The super obese, at least many of them, truly wish they can control some of their cravings for food. What are we doing as Americans to control this issue? Why arent more people involved in trying to solve this problem? It all starts with you.

There is no doubt that America today is facing an obesity epidemic. Oh wait, its already here. There are more people becoming overweight everyday and this nonsense has to stop quickly or we will all be paying for it even more. Health care costs are already up the roof and with Obamas new plan on health care it will even worsen. Are your pockets deep enough to help those who are at risk of heart disease caused by poor diet? Or are you part of the problem?Everyday, more and more people are becoming obese. Our public schools are getting rid of gym classs everyday saying that Mathematics and Science is much more important than staying in shape. The only problem that America faces with people being so overweight is the issues we are having with Health Care costs and obesity. The question arises for many people is, are they causing this problem.

So many people are educated about nutrition and exercise, yet so many Americans are doing very little if anything to take care of themselves. Most people will not do any exercise or eat healthy until a medical professional tells them they will die very early if they do not do something right away to combat their eating habits and lack of exercise. Most people will be on the go right after the initial shocking interview with their doctor and they will watch what they eat and exercise. That typically only lasts a few short months and these people are back at the old habits that will eventually kill them.

What can we do to stop this obesity epidemic? Individually and collectively we can start making a difference. However, it does start with you. Are you the root of the problem? Do you overeat? How many times do you exercise on any given week? If you are part of the problem I would suggest you make some drastic changes to your behaviors that are keeping you overweight. You can do it. Do it for yourself, not just because of the epidemic.

My recommendation to everyone right now is to win the fight of obesity. Overcome the addictions that are holding so many Americans bound from enjoying a life of true freedom; a life full of happiness and confidence. I am convinced that many of Americans problems would be solved if we took care of our physical selves and treated our bodies like temples. - 17273
