I need to encourage my family to lose weight (10 points)?

I would suggest asking your family why they don't exercise as much as they should to at least maintain a healthy weight and also do some research on the effects and health related issues of obesity then gather the troops and present them with that. The next time you go to the store try asking for more vegetables, fruits, and proteins, stay away from the sugars and starchs. Read the Nutrition lables when you want to get something before you buy it. Whenever you go to the doctor ask your physician for any advice on how to persuade your family to get healthy and bring your family with you to. I think hearing it from the horse's mouth will smack some reality into they're faces because being over weight is never good and there are so many health complications that come with it, I'm not saying you have to be Barbie and Kent skinny but like being under 200lbs doesn't hurt anyone.
