Lecture Notes

So in this lesson we're going to talk about the prevalence of obesity, or how common obesity is, as well as defining the terms overweight and obesity. We'll talk about the health risk of being either overweight or obese. We'll talk about ways that we measure body composition, or how our body is-the tissues our body's composed of. We'll identify factors that contribute to obesity, and finally, we'll talk about some skills for maintaining a healthy weight.
