Hi! Thank you for choosing this topic since I think obesity is often misrepresented in the media. I definitely learned a lot from your wiki! Our society has definitely become consumed by "diet culture" and the idea that certain foods are inherently better for you than others, prompting a demonization of obesity. When discussing this topic, I think it also may be helpful to include some of the social factors that may influence weight. For example, obesity is often more prevalent in lower income neighbourhoods due to a lack of grocery stores or other outlets that sell whole food options. Fast food is often more affordable and more convenient for people who work multiple jobs. I think this may help add an intersectional dimension to your wiki and allow you to expand on why obesity is more than just a medical issue. Great job overall!
