When it comes to being overweight, there probably isn't any age group that suffers more than teenagers. We all remember how tough the teenage years can be, add to that the stresses of being overweight and you can bet that being an obese teenager is something no one wants their kid to have to go through.
We all know that there are many factors that are adding to the increase in obesity such as sedentary lifestyles and relying too much on unhealthy fast or processed foods. We are also all to aware of the health risks associated with being overweight. The younger you are when you gain weight, and the longer you carry that extra weight, the more you risk getting some serious health issues later in life... and not that much later either. Many obese kids start having serious health issues well before they reach the age of thirty.
