23 In 1999: 61% of adults in the United States were overweight or obese By 2000: Over 45 million adults were obese

24 WHY WORRY ABOUT OBESITY?

25 Excess weight is a matter of health!  It significantly increases health risks and chronic conditions among all ages Heart disease Stroke Diabetes - especially Type II Diabetes which is rapidly increasing among teens Hypertension Cancer Arthritis and others

26 The more overweight one is, the more likely it is that you will have one or more chronic health conditions.

27  Chronic diseases account for 7 of every 10 deaths in the United States.  And for more than 60% of medical costs.

28 WHAT’S BEHIND AMERICA’S WEIGHT GAIN?

29 Everyday choices and behaviors that result in eating too many calories and/or using too few. Over-nutrition AND Under-activity

30 On average: Americans’ energy input (how many calories we take in) EXCEEDS expenditure by 300 calories per day. This is equivalent to: 3-4 oranges OR 6 Oreo ® cookies OR a 3 mile walk

31  Compare overweight and obesity to smoking and tobacco... Everyday in the US… 61% of adults are overweight or obese 19% of adults smoke Everyday in the US… Smoking is the #1 cause of preventable deaths Obesity is #2. And gaining…

32 National, state and local attention & activities: Some approaches include: Increasing the amount of time K-12 students participate in physical activity each day Social marketing that promotes limiting the amount of time kids spend watching TV, spending time online or playing video games Community-wide initiatives that create “safe” walking zones, including routes where kids can walk to school Insurance incentives to join health clubs

33 Potential PARTNERS Neighborhoods Businesses-Worksites Food Sources Healthcare Providers and Insurers Schools and Municipal Agencies Sports, Diet and Fitness Outlets Churches and Civic Groups Media

34 TOGETHER WE CAN ACCOMPLISH GREAT THINGS
