(The Huffington Post) – It goes without saying that the United States’ childhood obesity rates are beyond problematic — approximately 17 percent of kids and adolescents in this country struggle with their weight. But it’s going to take transcending depressing stories and statistics to actually do something about it.
At least that’s the message translated in ‘BITE SIZE,’ a new documentary that peers into the lives of four preteens and their unique struggles to get a handle on their health. Taking viewers along on each child’s journey, the film goes beyond highlighting the roots of their weight problems and shares, step by step, how they are working diligently to change their health for the better.
