you should start out with Statistics about Obesityor the definition of ithere's some ideas..The percent of children and teens who are overweight also continues to increase. Among children and teens ages 6-19, 15 percent (almost 9 million) are overweight according to the 1999-2000 data, or triple what the proportion was in 1980. In addition, the data shows that another 15 percent of children and teens ages 6 to 19 are considered at risk of becoming overweight.ORObesity can be defined as an excessive accumulation of body fat, which results in individuals being at least 20 percent heavier than their ideal body weight."Overweight"is defined as any weight in excess of the ideal range. Obesity is a common eating disorder associated with adolescence.Good luck!!
