 INTRODUCTION
SUMMARY
Chilhood obesity has become a disturbing national epidemic and has grown
considerably in the past two decades. The precentage of children and
adolescents who are defined as oberweight has more than doubled since the
early 1970s. According to the Centers for Disease Control, about 15 percent of
children and adolescents are now overweight. Ironically, obesity is among the
easiest medical conditions to recognize but most difficult to treat. Overweight
children are much more likely to become overweight adults unless they adopt
and maintain helthier patterns of eating and exercise. In fact, 30% of adult
obesity begins in chilhood. Obesity accounts for more than 300,000 deaths a
year and the annual cost to society for obesity is estimated at nearly $100
billion

 WHAT ARE THE MENTAL HEALTH EFFECTS ???
Summary :
The most immediate consequence of being overweight as perceived by children
themselves is social discrimination and low-self-esteem. In a recent study by Schwimmer et.al (2003)
,obese children rated their quality of life with scores as low as those of young cancer patient on
chemotherapy. In the study, 106 children aged 5 to 18 filled out a questionnaire used by pediatricians
to evaluate quality of life issues. Children were asked to rate things like their ability to walk more than
one block, play sports, sleep well, get along with others and keep up in school. The result indicated
that teasing at school, difficulties playing sports , fatigue, sleep apnea and other obesity-linked
problems severely affected obese childrens well being.

media, social, and culture. However, views the ideal body and how to get the ideal body
of boys and girls are different.

the pressure upon girls to be thin may put them at greater risk for developing eating
disordered behaviors and or related mood symptoms

• Messages to boys emphasize a muscular, "buff" body and pressure to body build and
perhaps make use of potentially harmful dietary supplements and steroids
•society presents boys with a wider-range of acceptable body images, they are still at risk
for developing disordered eating and body image disturbances
