If so, congratulations. If there were more people like you willing to get involved and help try to make a difference with something as important as overweight teens, the problem would solve itself rather quickly. The sad truth is, though, that most people just don't care about the problem, even when it affects them directly not to mention indirectly. It's a sad state of affairs, but it's one of the reasons the problem has become so bad.
The problem of overweight teens doesn't only have an effect on the present, it also affects the future of America and our way of life. If people are having problems with obesity while they're still children and teens, they're more likely to carry the problems into their adulthood. This, in turn, makes it harder and harder to flip it around and get to a healthy weight. Not to mention changing your lifestyle around spar bone-tired broadly serviceable weight.
You should realize that you're not going to change everything overnight on your own. By adding yourself to the mix of people trying to help with the problem of overweight teens in this country, though, you're helping make sure we solve the problem before it's too late. And that's important. If you have the time, it will pay off in more ways than you can imagine.
