    1. Obesity is difficult to treat because once fat cells are gained, they are nearly impossible to eliminate. Treatment focuses on eating less, eating healthier foods, staying on a diet, and regular exercise to burn excess calories. 2. Schools should not be banned from selling junk food. Parents should teach their children what foods to eat and avoid. 3. Obesity rates in America will likely continue increasing due to an established sedentary lifestyle and history of weight gain. Children will learn these behaviors from their parents.

    1. Obesity is worse because it is extremely difficult to get rid of fat cells. The
    treatment for anorexia is to eat more and gain some weight, but with obesity
    its begin to eat less and more healthy, stay on a diet, and do different exercise
    regiments to burn off the extra calories you have built up.
    2. Schools should not be banned from having junk foods. It should be up to the
    parents of the children to teach their kids what to eat and what not to eat.
    3. In America yes, because we have the food, and we have the proven history.
    Since the surveys began, America has slowly grown fatter and history tends
    to repeat itself. People have already grown accustomed to a more sedentary
    lifestyle and that’s what their children will learn.
    4. I do not think there are any drugs that can effectively eliminate obesity.
    Obesity is more than just being overweight it’s an actual lifestyle that
    overtime leads to being overweight and no drug is going to change that.
    5. No because I don’t think that parents who teach their children about what to
    eat and to stay in shape should have to pay more money to the government
    to take care of those children. It’s on the parents to teach their kids, and it’s
    on the kids to make their own decisions.
    6. No I don’t see any relation between video games and obesity. Again its on
    the kids to decide how long to play the video games and how long to play
    outside and be physically active.
    7. No, because I don’t want to pay more money just to get the better tasting
    foods, if anything fast food places should separate the fries from the meals
    and add fruit cups so that rather than a tax you just pay for an order of fries.
    8. I don’t like big. I don’t like small. I like the average sized active person who is
    in shape enough to walk up a flight of stairs without stopping for a break
    halfway up.
    9. Obesity is a choice. It’s not a single choice, but it is many choices over your
    lifetime that leads you down the path to obesity.
    10. Yes, because I hate to be mean or ignorant about this but I paid my money to
    get one full seat to myself, not half a seat for me and the guy beside me.
