Obesity
In the past couple of weeks all the media can talk about is how Americans are eating themselves to death. Every single day we pass a McDonalds, Burger King, Taco Bell, and many other fast food restaurants. These high calorie low nutrition “huts” are places everyone goes on a regular basis. People don’t have time to go home and cook a fully nutritional meal for the whole family after a hard days work. So they pack up the minivan and drive to there nearest major intersection and order a nice fat greasy meal. Five hundred calories here another hundred there seems like a norm in the world of fast food. The question that we need to ask is, are people fat because they eat to much fast food, is it because they just like to eat, or are people getting fat or being overweight for other reasons. Most of our television commercials today show only the perfect ten woman and man.

Diet coke, diet this diet that is now all over the place, school work even the playground. Everyone is obsessed about not being overweight, looking skinny, young and attractive. This can’t be a healthy thing but yet it’s happening everywhere. Almost every actor in Hollywood has a perfect body. They have such bodies because that is how they make there millions of dollars. When it comes to Grammy time they show themselves off on TV making most of the lower class people jealous they don’t look like that person. Weight loss commercials are almost on, on every channel these days. Whether it’s a weight loss supplement or a gym talking about losing ten pounds in ten minutes. I would have to agree that of course there are those dieting ways that actually get to lose excess weight, but these ways are slowly beginning to disappear. Most people are lazy and when it comes to loosing weight they rather pope a couple pills and watch TV then drive to the gym and work out, sweat, and hurt the next day just to get skinny. More and more people are using the dietary supplements that do get you skinny, but while they do that they cause
