What is Persuasive Mobile Exercise Companion for Teenagers with Weight Management Issues about?

Obesity is a grave problem in our society. A significant increase in prevalence within the last 20 years has resulted in greater mortality, increased stress on our healthcare system, and a decreased quality of life for people dealing with obesity and overweight issues. My dissertation concerns a mobile application that assists teenagers in leading physically active lifestyles to try and combat the risk of becoming obese or overweight as adults. I hope this research will prove to be a viable option to prevent or reduce the risk of obesity for teens so that they lead healthy lives. By reducing the risks of obesity and overweight problems, we also reduce the risk of these individuals developing debilitating diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.
