“I Am Spirit being 1st Human being 2nd Man / Woman 3rd Black /White 4th Christian/ Muslim 5th Fat/ Pretty/Bald 6th ...When I see...I can only see YOU. Why can 't you see me?” -Erykah Badu I believe Louise wanted to be viewed like this her whole life. Sadly the only time she ever noticed that she was “loved” was when she was starving and 150 pounds lighter. The views of Society man and reality standards of beauty have conflicted over a vast period of time, there 's always a certain stigma that sticks with beauty especially when it 's viewed under the social lens. Exploring how reality man and society 's views of physical standard would take a very long time to break down, but here are three reasons on how different our views are by using Andre Dubus’s “The Fat Girl”. Through the view of reality I would like to use Louise’s best friend Carrie, Carrie was a real friend she saw Louise for who she was and not her physical traits she made her feel comfortable with herself and was willing to help her lose weight as oppose of making her feel bad about herself. Society would be classified with Louise’s mother her mother was very hard on her because of how big she was, she always wanted for Louise to be beautiful and the only way her mother would accept her for who she was would be when she lost weight obviously her mother’s definition of beauty was only skin deep. Man would represent Louise, Louise seems confused for most of the story at a young age her mother pretty much

In American culture, the obese body is represented very negatively. One factor that contributes to this negative representation is the abundance of negative reactions that people display towards overweight people. It is a stigma that often taints and belittles the person, leading others to judge the individual negatively, rejecting, hating, or ridiculing him or her. That can often lead the obese person to develop sever psychological problems.

The common woodland bobcat has many fascinating, overlooked features. Many of these features are exclusive to the bobcats strictly, like their small tail that appears "bobbed". Other than their very interesting features, bobcats are really intelligent, and their life as a cub is just as interesting as later adult life. First up, we will take a look into the early life of bobcats.

The iconic 1960’s model Twiggy once said, “There's no need to dress like everyone else. It's much more fun to create your own look.” Twiggy, her real name is Lesley Hornby, is the first international supermodel who was most popular in the 1960’s. She is the most influential model of the 1960’s because of her looks, her awards, and everything that she contributed to 1960’s fashion.

Andre Dubus’s The Fat Girl chronicles the hardships that a self-described “fat girl” goes through. Stemming from a deprivation of food from her mother, Louise takes to devouring candies and other treats from her closet, a destructive habit which continues to haunt her for seventeen years. Even as she enters college, her habit follows her like a shadow. Her college roommate encourages her to diet, and she successfully does so until she is married. However, her habit comes back from the grave after years of social conformity and it nearly drives her husband to leave her. Throughout the story, the theme of conformity rises to the surface as Louise struggles with her self-image and peer pressure.

There are many risk of health problems caused by cat obesity.

No one can deny that obesity in cats can cause life altering changes within the cats’ bodies that can affect their quality of life. In the article written by Tarkosova et al., Scarlett and Donoghue stated, “In addition, one study found that the risk of developing diabetes mellitus was two times higher in overweight cats and

We tend to think that black cats are devils. The stories of the black cats have appeared different cultures of the world, the notion of a black cat that is both good and bad.

Knowing how to lose belly fat fast is lucrative information that does not only help others attain their goal but also motivates them to stay young and healthy. Obviously a lot of obese individuals would pay handsomely to gain such information. Achieving a tempting body will not only earn them the admiration of others but also allow them to be happy and fulfilled. However one does not have to pay to harness this. The secret to any slimming program is totally reliant on how one loves himself and his determination to achieve a rewarding life.

In recent science news, scientists at the University of Berkeley have developed a way to encourage the growth of fat that aids in reducing weight and low blood sugar in mice subjects.

What are fats ? When you think of a fat, you may imagine whale blubber or an obese person. All though those are both examples of fat, those are not the only kinds of fat. Fats are an essential to the human diet, and they play a vital role in keeping the body functioning properly. Fats can aid disease prevention weight lose, and muscle growth. These fats are called "good fats," or "healthy fats,", for the exact reason that they are beneficial to our body. Some examples of good fats are: avocados, nuts, fish, eggs, and oils such as coconut oil and olive oil. In addition to good fats, there are also bad fats. Bad fats are the opposite of good fats; they are unhealthy for the body. Bad fats are known to increase chance of disease, as well as possibly heightening your cholesterol levels. Butter, cheese, ice cream, and red meats are all examples of fats that are harmful to the body.

I originally wanted to enter into the field of dietetics after writing a 10 page research paper on obesity in America. After completing the paper I found I was very interested in nutrition and decided to see if there was a career I could make of it. Once I found that Kent State offered a program in Nutrition and Dietetics, I switched my major and immediately started enjoying the major. The hard sciences such as Biochemistry and Physiology fascinated me the most; learning about how the human body functioned was incredible. Then furthering my learning about macro and micronutrient utilization I found it amazing the way the human body works to utilize these nutrients and the key roles they play in the body. This past year I started volunteering at Campus Kitchen where we prepare meals for those less fortunate. Here I found my place quickly, helping the kitchen managers with the day to day activities such as instructing volunteers and delegating work duties to volunteers. I have also helped the managers plan meals and take a lead role when it came to a few injuries. Campus Kitchen helped me to realize my love for leading others and cooking, this is what has pushed me towards the food service field and looking forward to becoming a food service director.

There is a growing trend of overweight people living in America. This is nothing new however, overseas Americans are known for being “fat” and “lazy”, and for the most part it is hard to argue otherwise. American’s being overweight has become such a common trend, that when I walk down the street, and happen to see an overweight person, I don’t even consider them as being overweight anymore, because it has become commonplace, and obese American’s may get a look here and there but for the most part they are just passed by the same as everyone else. Americans are living in a society where people worship food and supermarkets have become the new cathedrals in this country.

In the animal kingdom big cats are some of the most interesting animals. Among the big cats two reign supreme, the lion and the tiger. Tigers, such as siberian tigers and bengal tigers, live mostly across asia. Lions, such as the african lion, live mostly in africa. These two species have many similarities and differences.

She stopped. The flat gold carpet tipped at a forty-five degree angle, then swirled away when she reached for it. The end table swooped and crashed a sharp edge into her arm. Then the floor lunged in and slammed against her side but not before her outstretched arms cleared the table of pill bottles, candles and lotions. The black lamp tipped, embroidered shade popping off and she felt the fall vibrate the walls as she lay there breathing. A lazy film of powder rose from where the light bulb used to be. Juice dripped onto her back. It was ice-cold and fresh from the refrigerator. Once she realized what it was, she sprang to her feet, no longer dizzy and righted it. Half gone already. It was the last she had.
