Full-Sentence Outline

A. Thesis: The obesity epidemic needs a government intervention because the medical costs

associated with obesity cost taxpayers money, unhealthy foods need tighter regulations, and

public schools need to provide healthier options.

B. First body paragraph topic sentence: The medical cost associated with weight-related

issues has significantly contributed to individual taxes.

1. Supporting evidence: “…the costs of obesity arising from individuals’ poor

nutritional choices are borne by society as a whole through taxes, lost productivity,

and an overburdened healthcare system. In 2008, the medical costs associated with

obesity and obesity-related illnesses totaled US $147 billion in the United States”

(Franck et al., 2013, p. 1951).

2. Analysis: This shows a connection between obesity and an increase in medical costs

and taxes. This quote supports the claim that weight-related medical issues contribute

to increased taxes for all taxpayers by explaining the connection and demonstrating

the high dollar costs to show that this is a current problem affecting a government

process (taxation) and therefore could be appropriately addressed by government

intervention.

C. Second body paragraph topic sentence: Another reason that weight should be considered a

governmental issue is that the market for unhealthy food in America has overtaken the

general food market and the government needs to actively curb the incentives to frequent

these establishments.

1. Supporting evidence: “[M]eals are increasingly being consumed outside the home,

and these meals tend to be higher in fat. A literal fat tax… theoretically would

encourage individuals to opt for low-fat or nonfat alternatives” (Franck et al., 2013, p.

1951).

2. Analysis: This quote alludes to many of the main problems with fast food

consumption and explains that a tax on these fast food could curb the consumption of

junk food. If a fat tax is effective, this shows the need for the government to impose

such a thing.

D. Third body paragraph topic sentence: Finally, the government is responsible for ensuring

that children have access to healthy food and exercise while in school.

1. Supporting evidence: A connection between Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move!”

campaign and a reduction in overall childhood obesity across America has been

demonstrated (Tucker, 2013, p. 5). 2. Analysis: This information shows the effectiveness of government-backed programs,

with “Let’s Move!” as the specific example, which supports the concept of

government involvement in reducing childhood obesity and providing a foundation

for establishing long-term healthy habits.

The following samples illustrate ways an outline can be structured and how detailed it can be. Whether using letters,

numbers, bullets, or a combination, each part of an outline should be labeled so it is always clear what is being included.

The following sample includes APA-style citations and references.

Page numbers are not required

when citing paraphrased information.

However, you may include

them if doing so would better

direct readers to the information

cited.

A full-sentence outline may be required

when submitting an outline as a course

assignment, as shown here.

E. Conclusion

1. Rephrased thesis: Obesity is causing taxpayers more money. Unhealthy foods are

not regulated and inadequate nutrition and exercise in schools are leading to a rise in

obesity. Therefore, the government needs to intervene in order to decrease the rates of

obesity.

2. Significance: The government’s intervention is important so that we can reduce the

rates of obesity before they soar to an uncontrollable level.
