Would you ever quit eating fast food?

I use to eat fast food like once a week and I usually go to McDonald to get it. But ever since I started to work on my blog I noticed the danger in eating fast food. I know that I would eventually die one day but I think dying from eating fast food is stupid to me. Also I really don’t want to be having any health problems from eating it. My doctor told me that I was kind of overweighed for my height so I decided to try to eat less fast food. I wouldn’t say that I quitted eating fast food but I did stop going to McDonald to eat. Now I would just to try to order stuff that has less fat in it and would try to eat a bit healthier or I would see if my mom cooked anything at home to eat or not. If there is something to eat one I can save money because I don’t have to have to buy something to eat and second I do think that my mom’s cooking taste much better then fast food.

After reading my blog do you think that you would quit eating fast food at all? Would you at least try to eat less fast food? Are you going to do what is best for you? Well if you truly want to quit or stop eating fast food there are ways you can. You can first try to limit yourself from eating a lot of fast food. If you are trying hard to quit eating fast food, Good luck!

Should obese people be ban from restaurants?

Have you ever thought that obese people should be ban from restaurants? Is being obese wrong? Should they have the right to eat in restaurants at all? Should they be denied to ask for greasy and oily food? Should they be force to eat vegetables and nutritious food only?

Well Mississippi is trying to make it illegal for obese people to eat at restaurants and this new bill is called the HB 282. “Mississippi has been found as being one of the country’s fattest states and has one of the highest death rates from cardiovascular disease.” As you read about the cardiovascular disease blog I wrote it is the number one causes of death because it is the main cause of heart attacks and strokes. Will the obese people put on a strike about this new bill? Will this become the law?

Do you think that people will follow this law if it is ever pass? Well for my opinion I think that if the law is pass people will go on strike and fight this law because a lot of people in today’s society are obese. To me I think that making this bill legal will go against the amendments and lawyers might have a good chance of winning a case like this. Well I think everyone have their own opinion on this so feel free to leave your comment on this blog.

Fast food main targets are ...

The fast food industries main target isn’t adults, their main targets are teens and toddlers. In advertisements that industries use to promote their fast food they usually have songs and toys that they would give out to children if they were to buy the meal. Some industries would even build playgrounds inside so the kids can play and eat at the same time.

Studies have showed that fast food industries have targeted toddlers because they have showed their commercials mostly on Nickelodeon channels, Disney channels and on shows such as the Sesame Street. These are shows that kids these days watch most often today. They picked that time to broadcast their commercials so they can send messages out to children “linking that eating fast food can bring you fun and happiness.”

Overall I do think that fast food industries main targets are focused on children because even my niece that is only two and a half knows that McDonald taste good and always want to eat it whenever we pass by McDonald. She would always recognize the big yellow M in McDonald and tell me to go in and get her some fries and she would always want the meal because she wants the toy too. If I don’t, she would get all mad and start crying saying I want to eat it. Sometimes I would just get the fries and leave.

Cheeseburger Bill

Have you ever heard of the Cheeseburger Bill? Do you think this bill is something related to cheeseburgers or something? Well if you do think that way then you are wrong! It has nothing to do with burgers at all. The Cheeseburger Bill is also called the Personal Responsibility in Food Consumption Act. This bill is a bill that prevents people from suing fast food companies because they are becoming obesity due to eating too much fast food.

After eating fast food for a long time people start becoming fatter and then they start suing McDonald, Wendy’s, KFCs, Burger King, and etc. The first lawsuit against fast food happened in 2002 when a guy sued McDonald for his obesity and diabetes. Ever since that lawsuit people began suing fast food companies. So the house decided to make a law so that people can’t blame the fast food restaurants for their obesity problem. “The US House of Representatives has voted 276-139 for a bill that would prevent lawsuits against the food industry for making people fat.” If we have self control over what ever we eat obesity would not happen. In today’s society almost one in five Americans today are either obese or overweighed. But this bill still hadn’t become a law yet because the bill still hasn’t been approved by the Senate.

How to prevent obesity from happening?

Reason why obesity occurs is because we like to eat a lot of food that contains a lot of fat and calories. A lot of fast food companies often have meals that people can super size their order so they would end up eating more a lot more than what they should be eating. Fast food companies have heavy advertising that helps make fast food looks more appealing to people so they would keep buying them fast food. Also now some fast food companies offer free deliveries. A good example of this is when you order pizza they would deliver it to you if you wanted it to be.

I think that are three steps that you must take in order to prevent obesity. First of all people should try to eat more nutritious and healthier food so the food won’t contain a lot of fat and calories. Second you should have more self control on what you eat all the time so you won’t over eat. Third of all is that after all your meals you should defiantly do exercise to burn off the calories that you just ate so you won’t get over weighted or get fat over time. I think that if people follow these steps they won’t even become over weighted and if they don’t become over weighted they won’t become obesity. Since obesity does mean that you are 30 lbs above your normal weight.
