The Problem

THE PROBLEM WE HAVE COMMITTED TO FIGHT IS CHILDHOOD AND ADULT OBESITY. OBESITY HAS BECOME ONE OF THE GROWING EPIDEMICS IN AMERICA. EVERYDAY PEOPLE ARE CONSUMING MORE CALORIES THAN THEY CAN BURN OFF, THUS CAUSING OBESITY. PEOPLE ARE NOT EATING HEALTHY. FAST FOOD PLACES ARE BECOMING RICH AND THEIR PORTION SIZES ARE TOO LARGE. FAMILIES ARE LOOSING FAMILIES OR BURDENING FAMILIES BECAUSE OF HEART DISEASES, DIABETES, AND OTHER HARMFUL DISEASES. ALL OF THIS HARM IS THE EFFECT OF UNHEALTHY LIVING.

Plan of Action

I started the Anti-Obesity Krew for the children, teens, and adults because I want to see a robust America. I want to make a difference; this is why my program is taking a stand to make obesity news in our community. My group is talking to local market owners, council members, police officers, publication services, hospitals, and other cities to aid us in our fight against obesity. We are working to educate the public about the difference between healthy and unhealthy eating. A-OK encourages everyone to join our strive to put an end to obesity.
