MAIN BODY
Obesity refers to a complex disease which are highly effective and can involve an
excessive amount of body fat. This is the one which does not only include the cosmetic concern
it also includes medical problems which can lead to creating a high negative impact and risk of
other diseases like diabetes, heart disease, certain cancer and high blood pressure (Kinavey and
Cool, 2019). In this, there are a large number of the population who are highly affected by
obesity which are generally due to eating too much and having very less physical activity. Due to
this, there is high negative impact on the individual body that can lead to creating body fatness
and obesity. It is essential to intake of healthy food and diet that can ensure about the uptake of
better health and reduce the risk of fat bodies and provide better prevention from obesity. In
society, there is large impact of a body shape that can lead to creating high impact on an
individual perception within society. It has been ensuring that the individual body should be
lenient and should not have overweight or obese. There are a large number of the population who
are facing the issue of obesity and fair disparity is due to humiliation from their friends and
others (Johansson, 2021).

There is media representation about the fat body which includes that there should not be
any type of negative impact of intake of different type of foods which consume large calories and
include increasing the risk of fat within the body. In old-time, there is a culture that includes the
body shape and size. There are a large number of the population in the society who have the
ability to manipulate the large the population about the positive and negative way about the
physical health (Sharma and et. al., 2018)(Baker, 2018). This can include their body shape and
fitness. There is media criticism about portrait body image through different films and images.
Culture have also high impact on a processing good and healthy body. In this, there are a large
number of population and society who like to have a better body posture within the society.
There is also impact of such type of perception that can lead to create high impact on a particular
gender of the society (Haney and et. al., 2021).
Body culture lead to create description about the comparing body practice within the
culture and society. This includes the tradition of anthropology, sociology and history where
body culture help to analyze society and culture in terms of human body practices. This can also
form of materialistic phenomenology. Body culture study help to describe along with comparing
body practices within the culture and society. This can also help to increase awareness about the
body posture within the large population. Body culture study also include different studies about
the activities and another form of movement culture which can include various activity and have
to provide better association and delivery of the effective response.
Women are highly affected with the body culture where they like to have a process a
better health. Here, fat bodies and obesity play an important role that can lead to create a
restriction in processing good body posture (Timotijevic and et. al., 2018). In this, society are
highly influenced about having the perception that women and girls should have a lenient body
that should not possess any type of fat and lead to create obesity within them. In society, it has
also people with having fat bodies and obesity are highly effective and can lead to face the
various type of discrimination on different places. People's attitude and behavior are also get
changed when any individual have a different type of fat body. For example- when any girl or
woman having a lenient body and does not posses any type of fat or obesity then they are
generally expressed as having good posture and generally admired. But in comparison to these,
any girl or women having fat bodies and facing obesity issue then such type of women are not
admired and they face various type of discrimination at the workplace, family, school, colleges

or any other places. There is high impact of society on possessing body posture that may include
fat bodies and obesity and such type of discrimination (Cass and et. al., 2020). There is need to
practice about obesity prevention which are highly effective and can help a large population to
focus on their better physical health and should avoid the risk of fat bodies and obesity. This can
also influence them to uptake and intake of healthy food and a balanced diet that can be
appropriate for better health and enable them to process good body posture.
Due to possessing fat bodies and obesity, there are a large number of the population who
generally experience a different type of health issues. This may include high blood pressure,
obesity, certain type of cancer and many more. There are also some social constructs about the
people who are having fat bodies and obesity (Arseniev-Koehler and et. al., 2020). This lead to
create various type of discrimination at different places which lead to create a high negative
impact on their mental health. There is also high level of experience of health and illness which
may include different mental illnesses and well-being. Due to facing discrimination about the
body posture, there are large number of women who are highly obsessed by the body posture and
they need to perform different activities that can be helpful to make their body slim and in a good
shape. In this, women with fat bodies and obesity problems generally face discrimination and
various differences which are generally changed in the behavior of society people. Late
modernity includes the characterization of a developed global society where people have
different perceptions about body shape. In this, there are perceptions about men that they should
possess good and fit body which should not create a any type of obesity and fat body. Whereas,
women and also obsessed with their body where they should not depose fat bodies for any type
of obesity (Vogel, 2018).
When any people who are having fat bodies and obesity, then they may get treated in
different way which are not acceptable for them. They generally face some discrimination and
stigma where they are not allowed to process type of fatty bodies. In this, apply the obesity
prevention intervention which can be effective and can help them to perform their role more
appropriately. This can also enable them about the fat from their body and allow them to process
good and lenient body. Here, obesity prevention play an important role to a large population to
reduce their risk of obesity and get the better-shaped body.
Embodied experience lead to create high impact on individual health or illness. In this,
due to possessing fat body or obesity (Fahs, 2019). This can lead to creating high negative

impact on individual health. There are large number of individuals who posses obesity or fat
body that are highly associated with an increasing risk of different disease like a certain type of
cancer, hypertension, diabetes and many more. This can also lead to create negative health
impacts and influence to achieve negative impact on their health. Due to possessing such type of
fat bodies and obesity people create some discrimination and change in their behavior and
attitude towards such type of people. This can lead to create negative mental health issues to
such type of person where due to constantly facing such type of discrimination and changing in
the behaviour of society people can also create a mental illnesses like anxiety and depression
(Lameko, 2020).
There is high representation of body in art or media. In this, social media play an
important role that can also influence a large number of the population about possessing their
body. Film, music albums and different type of social media for influence to posses good body
shape and can influence person with body fat and obesity. They are not treated well which can
lead to create discrimination on the social world that can influence mental illness. From old ages,
the human body is highly effective and can inspire painters through their beauty. This can also
include painters, sculptures, artists and photographers who are highly motivated by the beauty of
human body that spontaneously give drive through fundamental reasons about the artistic
creation. This can create high impact on social and religious extended. This may include cultural
values and different symbols, absolute beauty, fat body and obesity and can lead to creating high
negative impact on artist motivation. In this, artist like to face such type of beauty about the
different human body which may also include fat bodies with obesity (Stanford and et. al., 2018).
In this, artist like to get motivated through a different type of lenient body which are
highly effective and can attract them to motivate them to perform their artist activity effectively.
They should perform their practices through observing the different type of lenient body which
generally possesses to the human body. Media have different type of representation about the
body which may include within heart and media. There are various type of social media in which
society like to possess a lenient body in every individual where it can also attract large
population and influence people to process some good physical health. Through adopting good
physical body or shape which includes different and other social media that are highly effective
and influence large number of the population to posses good physical health. This can help to
possess good lenient body and enable them to stay more positive (Cohen and et. al., 2019).

Social media had been represented that people with a lenient body and having a good
shape of their body posture are highly admired and provided the various type of facilities and
benefits which are generally not provided to people with fat bodies and obesity. This creates high
difference between the body shape of a people their attitudes and behavior. For a different type
of body shape, media also influences a large number of population to possess good lenient body
and better shape of their body that can be highly effective and can allow them to perform those in
and more attractive way. This can influence large number of the population to get towards them.
Social media can also influence large population to achieve good physical health that can enable
them to be attractive and attract a large population towards them through their body shape.
Media also influence large numbers of the population to achieve a better and good physical
health that are highly associated to take good nutritional food and a balanced diet. In this, it is
also needed to ensure that they should avoid any type of obesity within the large population and
influence the process good physical health (Khajeheian and et. al., 2018).
There is high effectiveness of regulation about the social control of body where society
likes to process good and lenient body to every individual. This also influences large number of
the population and other people to perform of physical activity that can be highly effective and
can allow reducing the risk of fat bodies and obesity. This can also include obesity prevention
which are highly effective and can enable to take some medical help or medication that can
enable them and support them in reducing the fat within their bodies and reduce the risk of
obesity. It also include media discourses and practices which are highly effective and can
influence a large number of the population to poses good physical health which are associated
with possessing a good body shape. Fat bodies and obesity are not considered in good body
shape where media discourses and practices about sharing the activities which are generally
performed by individuals who have no body fat and obesity. This also influences large number of
the population to focus on their body fat and should perform a different type of physical activity
that can help them to posses good physical health (Shahjehan and et. al., 2018).

Effective and can lead to creating high negative impact on society's perception within society. It
has been included that they have the perception that women should possess good body shape and
should not contain any type of fat within their body. There is also discrimination based on a body
