While I was watching tv tonight, I saw a commercial for a new fitness show that will be addressing the issue of childhood obesity. The show is called Shaq's Big Challenge and involves NBA superstar Shaquille O'Neill teaching 6 young overweight kids about physical fitness.
Obesity affects many adults in the U.S. and is a growing problem among children as well. I will be looking forward to watching this show and seeing how Shaq and his team tackle the issue of childhood obesity while helping these children get into better shape.
The show airs June 26th at 9 pm ET.

Shaq,
This evening I saw the first episode of your program with these 6 kids with morbide obesitas.
You’re great that you take that problem serious and others too.
It’s very important.
I’m 33 years old, live in Belgium, and I fight whole my live against obesitas. The most important thing is that you believe in yourself, and no pain, nog gain…
And with me it’s getting better everyday..I lose weight, I sport and I enjoy live..
Thanks Shaq!
