    Obesity-related diseases cost the United States an estimated $150 billion each year.
    Bingeing on high-calorie foods may be as addictive as cocaine or nicotine, and could cause compulsive eating and obesity
    “Obesity may be a form of compulsive eating. Other treatments in development for other forms of compulsion, for example drug addiction, may be very useful for the treatment of obesity "

  2. This are some of the diseases you can get from obesity: Cardiovascular Diseases. Endocrine Disease. Gastrointestinal Disease. Liver Disease.
    The two main causes of obesity in America are fast food and lack of excrise. Fast food contains extremely high levels of fat, calories and carbohydrates that your body doesn't need. As portion sizes at these establishments have risen, so has the caloric intake for those who eat there regularly.
    Another major cause for obesity in America is lack of exercise. As work, school, television and video games have started taking up more time in the day, exercise and spending time outdoors as been squeezed out. Schools have taken physical education courses out of the required curriculum. Exercise is not a priority for many American adults.
    What can we done for obesity is we can stop eating at fastfood restdrauts. I would stop eatting fatting foods and watch my calories.

  4. There are many different health problems that are caused by obesity some are risks of diabetes, diseases, and getting addicted to food. The lack of energy balance mostly causes obesity but there are other kinds of things that do to like the medicines you take, your genes and family history, and the way you control your emotions. The foods that usually make you over weight are sugars, breads, starches and fat. You can watch what you eat. Don’t eat lots of sugars and make sure you get exercise at least one time a day.

  7. Some health risks of being obese is the risk of developing diabetes, you are more prone to disease, you also may become addicted to high-calorie food. Some things that cause obesity is over-indulging in high calorie foods. Obesity caused dieseases cost the US 150 billion dollars each year. Another thing that causes obesity is being exposed to foods that are high in calories or developing an eating habit that isn’t healthy. Outreagous foods that are most common is bacon, all the candy bars, and dressings for foods. They are the high-calorie part of your diet, that really effects you. You shouldn’t eat foods that are high in grease or fat, or high in calories. I personally think that there are a lot things that can be done, such as making the Americans more knowledgable about the foods that we eat. Something else that may help is the fact that popular fast food places give out more than they should, which causes people to basically think that the portions they are giving us is ok. I think I can’t really do anything about it except educate people about the situation and hope they take everything I have into consideration before they eat that Snickers bar! (;

    All of the health problems that come with being obese are dangerous. This includes diabetes and heart disease. Junk food and overeating causes obesity. Overindulging yourself in not just fatty foods but food in general isn’t good. Some of these outrageous foods include cupcakes with bacon on them, deep fried twinkies, deep fried oreos, and donut hamburgers. Something needs to be done about this. Some changes that can occur would be changing the foods at lunch at school, starting a diet, eating small portions, eating healthy food when you get hungry in between meals instead of eating junk food eat veggies♥

  11. Richelle Responding to Kadie; I think you did a good job with your information, except you didn't answer all of the questions, and your spelling needs some touch ups. & you could possibly take a more of an essay aproach to the blog assignments.
    But other than that, I understood what you had to say and you did fantastic.

    Except you didn't answer all of the questions, that were assigned. However, all your information is very valuable.
