Help Stop Obesity !

Two out of four teens in the US today are obese.The sad part about this is it is mostly the parents fault ! They give them no choice of healthy food because they probably go out to eat almost all the time. You may not think so but you can actually get something healthy from a fast food place. For example, at mcdonalds you can get a snack wrap with NO fries. Don't get a regular soda. Get water or a diet soda ! At wendy's you could get a grilled chicken sandwhich or a salad. NO FRIES ! Another reason people are obese is they are couch potatoes. You can watch TV and not eat food. If you start feelin hungry go chug a glass of water. Trust me it works, I have tried this before. Bored at home ? GO OUTSIDE ! You don't have to go do some hard core running that we know you don't wanna do. Grab a friend or your Ipod and just go for a nice walk around yur neighborhood. If you have a pool or a neighbor hood pool go swim so laps or just go swim ! Just help your body image by eating and doing better things for your body. Don't feed it bad stuff and don't let it be active ! BE ACTIVE AND GO !

I can see that you really feel strongly about this topic, and that is soooooo great! =D not only is obesity on the rise, but juvinille diabetes is to because of obesity. Im glad that you pointed out ways for people to see that they can still go to fast food places with their friends and they can still have fun with being healthy! There are so many other great things that come with being healthy too! You will feel great and have a lot more confidence as well.
