Jared S. Fogel. How do you spend your money? Do you spend it on clothes, household items, everyday food for your family or just on yourself eating Mc Donald’s everyday?! Imagine all the money you would waste. Imagine all the health problems you would get. Luckily for Jared Fogel, he dealed with his obesity before it got too bad. Today I am persuading you that Jared loosing 245 pounds was the best pathway for him. Did you know that one in three adults is obese? Also 21% of children aged 5-14 years old are overweight and 10% are obese. Obesity is a risk factor for many diseases including two types of diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and also some types of cancer. Imagine how bad Jared’s health would get if he kept on eating bad foods! Jared weighed 425 pounds, and ate 10,000 calories per day! That’s about 6 Big Mac Combo’s! That’s 60 dollars spent on Mc Donald’s every day! So that is 420 dollars a week spent on Mc Donald’s! isn’t that just a waist of money? I mean who would spend that much money on food, that’s disgusting! Imagine all the other things you could spend that money on! They say that beauty is skin deep. Everyone once in a while judges someone by the way they look. Imagine how many people judged Jared by the way he looked. Jared never gave up during his weight loss. Congratulations Jared! With the help from subway’s new, low fat 6-inch turkey sub, Jared was able to keep it off. Jared’s resilience helped him get through this chapter of his life. He would be more confident, have a higher self esteem and would be more confident to keep it off. Jared- ‘subway helped save my life over and over.’ ‘I can’t ever repay that.’ By Lucy 2008
