Obesity and ----abuse of power

OBESITY

For this week’s discussion we will be examining how we might use eating as a coping strategy for emotions and the influence of social and cultural factors on the individual psyche. 

How does society and the media influence our view of what is a “normal” or healthy body weight?

How does not conforming to the societal norm affect factors like self-esteem, self-efficacy, and emotional well-being?

How do emotions impact food choices and eating behaviors?

Discuss a minimum of 3 solutions to the challenges you identified in the first 3 question
