Blogging has been an interesting
experience for me. I am not one to sit
down and write about my opinions, thoughts or likes/dislikes and post them over
a social media site. This assignment has
actually opened my eyes as to why people blog and how it can be a great social
tool for people to express themselves in a personal setting. I enjoyed reading my
classmates blogs and learning about a variety of health subjects.
The goal of my blog was to teach
others about the causes of childhood obesity; because over the past thirty
years childhood obesity has been on the rise and is continuing to grow and
change is needed. I wanted the readers
of my blog to understand why children become obese, which include genetics,
diet, low physical activity and their environment, learn how to prevent childhood
obesity, and be able to identify the contributors.
I hope that after reading my blog
people will have a greater understanding of childhood obesity and learn how
they can contribute to the fight against childhood obesity.
