There are many problems on a personal note about obesity. One is that people who are obese loss their confidence about themselves. Some people feel that being obese gives them a disadvantage at life and it makes some of them commit suicide. Its makes them do that because healthy or normal sized people make fun of them and make them feel not wanted. Some people are obese because they gained an eating disorder or comfort from food that they weren’t getting from other people or a person when something bad happens to them in their lives. Such as a death of there best friend they never completely dealt with or some just love to eat and don’t know how to control themselves.
On a societal note about obesity I feel that in today’s society most people view obesity as a avoidable thing and people who are obese as lazy, non hardworking individuals. I feel that society is making a big deal about being fit and healthy that when a person becomes a obese, that they automatically assume that the person is chooses to be that way. But actually most obese people want to get healthy but feel they have no help and motivation to become healthy until they learn what that weight they carry around could do to there health in the long run. Some people don’t realize they could die and others refuse to believe they could die until something horribly wrong happens to them one day like a seizure to make them realize they need to do something.
Overall I feel most people who are obese don’t really want to be that way. I feel they just need help, motivation, and guidance to help them through whatever experience they went through that made them turn to food. And once they do that then they could enjoy a healthy life and enjoy everyday for what it is, and not always being talked about like they used to be.
