Lose 10 pounds in 10 days... it seems like everywhere I go people are becoming fatter and fatter, and its not really that I dislike fat people, its more that it is sad to see this happen that leads me to right this article on what the federal government should do to take care of this growing epidemic.
Now, first lets start out with the good things its doing:
I'm sure you have all heard the ads regarding shedding pounds, such as the one where someone found a "butt' or a "double Chin" and the other ads promoting exercise and a good diet. This is a step in the right direction. Acknowledging that there is a problem is a step in the right direction. And we have reached this point. Obesity is rampant, and we know this and are working to stop this problem.
What we need to strive to do is to keep our children from becoming obese. There are some controversial plans that involve giving students "grades" based on their weight, and I can understand that this might be embarrassing to the child, but something needs to be done. We can't allow our population to balloon in the waist size.
We need to promote gastric bypass surgery. This is probably the best way to lose weight for obese people. These surgeries are a god send, and I think that Medicare should start providing this, considering that obesity is a major killer in this country.
Therefore, the number 1 way to lose 10 pounds is to promote proper health in the country.
