Document Content and Description Below

SCI 228 WEEK 6: WHAT IS A HEALTHY BODY WEIGHT? What is a healthy body weight? How do you define a healthy body weight? For Discussions, create a 1 to 2 minute multimedia VIDEO that you record/create... (DO NOT POST A LINK TO A VIDEO THAT SOMEONE ELSE HAS CREATED) and post it to the discussion to respond to the above question. Besides posting your individual multimedia piece, you must comment on 2 other students' multimedia pieces (you are not required to record your comments, but can choose to use the text comment feature). Remember, they must still be quality posts. Simply stating, "Nice job, I agree" is not sufficient. Examples of quality posts include: • Providing additional information to the discussion; • elaborating on previous comments from others; • presenting explanations of concepts or methods to help fellow students, Theresa Bodus Thursday Feb 14 at 7:52pm Excellent information Mandy, Janpaolo, Lindsey, and Shondrea. I agree with you that we need to show both men and women depictions of healthy bodies. As you stated Mandy, a scale is not necessary to determine if you are healthy. A scale is just one tool that may or may not be beneficial. How do we make a difference? How do we communicate that bodies come in many shapes and styles? What do you think?

To me, I think that you do not have to have a certain weight to be seen or accepted as healthy, my family has many people with very thick body and dry skin and just like I have mentioned earlier in our chats I have developed an attitude of drinking much water and with my weight I work out regularly just to stay fit and not necessary lose weight to a certain amount. I have seen cases where people worry so much on their weight, I always tell my friends who talk much about how much they are not happy that not everyone can be skinny in this world, but you just must make sure you stay healthy by eating right, drinking much water and exercise.

We can make a difference by displaying different shapes and sizes in the public eye. As young girls we start out playing with Barbies. Barbie has come in one shape and size for many years, leading young girls to believe that they have to be this way to fit into society. We have to stop being so hypocritical of others as well. If we stop shaming others for being plus sized we can not assume that their unhealthy. Manage Discussion Entry Go To Parent I agree, a scale is not the determining factor when discussing health.

We must also understand that the numbers we should pay attention to are the ones our doctors tell us to look out for such as blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar. It's important to know that eating right and exercising will keep these important numbers in a healthy range to ensure we live a long healthy life. Starving ourselves and going through all the crash diets to reach a number on a scale does more harm to our bodies and ultimately will not make us happy.

I think it is something in someone's brain that is just triggered. I think eating disorders are much like anxiety and depression. Something is triggered in the brain to make the person feel a certain way or want to do something that they normally wouldn't do. I know, from friends, that it is not something that they would have thought of doing without hearing about it from other people. For example, one friend of mine that had a very serious eating disorder said that she only started doing after being bullied about her weight. That is when she would stop eating or took even worse matters after eating something. Manage Discussion Entry Go To Parent I think that eating disorders are not due to genetics.

I mainly liked how you talked about healthy lifestyles. As people tend to gain weight rather it be around the holidays or not. If you dont exercise and make smart healthy decisions your body tends to react back on your decisions attacking your health. Like you can development shortness of breath which can lead into beathing problems, highblood pressure, diabetes, heart attack.

You hit on all of the important points. People always mistake actually looking into the families background to see how they were raised and what type of diets or foods they ate. I agree you want to be at a healthy weight and try to maintain that by eating healthy meals and partaking in physical activities. So do you feel thus far that you have learned things about nutrition that you previously did not? I know I have. Thanks for sharing your presentation with the class.

People who are overweight or obese may need to lose weight to improve their health." I feel this information is vital to everyone.

I like that you actually included the body fat percentages for each group of person. The common misconception is weight is what matters to be healthy, but I disagree with that entirely. I personally am a firm believer that it comes down to the body fat percentage and also overall physique. Though these things don’t necessarily mean you are healthy, they seem to be more accurate that just going off of weight. Manage Discussion Entry Go To Parent Great video.

When I go through my period of trying to be healthy and get in shape I do my best to ignore my weight changes to check progress and instead i pay more attention to how i feel and how my clothes fit me. Growing up I always heard of weight from my mother and as an adult it does tend to be a little difficult to not focus on weight. I now try and tell my mom to not focus on weight.

You are absolutely correct that weight is just a number. Unfortunately, we seemed to be so obsessed with that number. You could get to that number and still be dangerously unhealthy.

The funny thing about weight is a person can be small and think that their in shape but in reality they might be more of risk for something then someone they may look at and think that their not in shape or I should say healthy because they don't have a actual six pack popping out. The body is real funny and everyone is different period!

This is actually a very personal issue that I have seen numerous people struggle with. This was definitely one of the factors that made me want to do a presentation on this topic. Addiction for many people is extremely hard to overcome and some people never do get out of that cycle. It's a very sad thing for the loved ones who are affected by the addiction when they can't really do much to help. I have found the saying, "you can't help someone who doesn't want to be helped" to be a rather unfortunate truth in some cases. Thank you for taking the time to view my presentation.

The BMI system was created in the 1800's and it is no longer very accurate, because a person bmI can be 24 or less and they can still be unhealthy. Also a person that has height can make their BMI look as if they're obese and in reality they're not . In other words the BMI system is really not an effective way anymore in determining whether a person is healthy or even obese.
