Report on Obesity


Obesity

In America and NZ, obesity is growing at the speed of lightning. It has been really bad for a long time as it has affected the lives of many.

Some people in the U.S. are very obese and some of them weigh a lot more than 50 stone. They have major health problems like knee pain, shortness of breath, diabetes, heart attacks and heart problems but that’s not all. People have gotten really big and have died really young, the average being around the age of 45. It has been so bad that it took the life of an 11 year old.

The definition of obese is being really big and fat, well over the normal weight for their age and just in general.

Young men and women in America and in many other countries are putting their life at risk by eating too much junk and going to a lot of restaurants that have many greasy food on the menus. Eventually, when people get too obese, their life starts to lack of quality and they cannot be the people they want to be. Life get’s really hard as some people can hardly move and have to go out in wheelchairs and special bus fairs.

The cause of obesity is addiction of junk food and compulsive over eating. It gets even harder as obese people have an extreme addiction to eating food that is bad for them. Obese people also have a sedentary lifestyle which means they are lazy and sit around and not get outside to exercise.

Being obese is really bad for your health because it is a disease that can really ruin your life. What ever you do watch your weight because it does affect your future and what you do.

  1. Hi Makayla. The language you used was great in trying to get the reader to recognise that obesity is a growing problem. You provided good information on the topic. It is always good to follow up your writing with good facts and you did it well. Well done!
