"Obesity is a problem that we can't ignore, and we need engagement from all sides."

"According to data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, rates of obesity have doubled in children and tripled in teens."

"Childhood obesity is a tragic public health epidemic in this country, and the statistics are alarming."

"One out of every 3 children is affected by obesity, and over the last 3 decades rates have skyrocketed."
