31. The Cost of Obesity in Wisconsin
If trends continue, close to half of
Wisconsinites will be obese by 2018
Each year, obese adults incur $1,429
more in medical expenses than
their normal-weight peers
32. The Cost of Obesity in Wisconsin
Wisconsin health care costs
related to obesity
$4.6 billion
$2.7 billion
$1.6 billion
2008
2013
2020
Wisconsin spends $0 on
obesity prevention
73% of Americans say obesity
prevention is an important
priority for the government
to focus on
33. The Impact in Brown County
27% of our adults are obese + 40% of our adults are
overweight = 67% of adults are not at a healthy
weight
34. What About Our Youth?
In Brown County, 18.4% of low-income two year olds and
19.4% of low-income four year olds are at the 95th
percentile or higher for BMI
In Wisconsin High School Students:
¼ are overweight or obese
1/5 eat 5 or more fruits & veggies/day
¼ watch TV for 3 or more hours/day
This generation of youth will likely be the first generation in the
history of our country to live shorter, sicker lives than their parents.

43. What is the single best thing you can
do for your health?
In adults: Low fitness is the strongest predictor of
death – greater than smoking, obesity, diabetes,
and high cholesterol
Going from zero activity to just 60
minutes a week reduced rate of heart
disease in women by half
In children: the more fit the student is
the better they perform on standardized
tests (learning readiness PE)
44. Can you limit your
sitting and sleeping to
just 23 ½ hours a day?
47. Sleep More, Weigh Less
Lack of sleep = fatigue = less likely to be active
when you are awake
Lack of sleep = altered hormone
concentrations = increased appetite & hunger
Sufficient sleep = improved mental
health – better mood, improved
memory, improved self esteem
