Course Reflection 6
So since the last time I was on able to do my reflection it during the beggining stages of writing my essay. the journey of writing my essay as been pretty difficult least to say. It was just all about writing my claims, reasoning, and making sure everything was outlined and stated very clearly. What Ive been having trouble with is my rubbutal. I have my all my points for my argument and everything. Just I do not know how to go about my rebuttal. I did go to my professor for help to see if he can guide me in the rigt direction. He did give me some good pointers which i took note of it just now fiding a good rebuttal to go against my claim. This is one thing i do hate about argumentative papers. Here is a look at my introduction. I like the way it came out and how I set it up.

Obesity has become more of an epidemic to young adults over the decades than any other age group that can be effected by obesity.(see authors) Young adults have become more at risk of being obese as they age because of numerous reason.

To achieve this goal this essay will elaborate on how a young adults economic status, living proactive, and changing the way they eat can be helpful to them. In addition, to this essay it will also explain the causes and prevention of obesity that can help those struggling with obesity and or starting to gain weight.
As stated above, this essay will elaborate on how obesity is a harmful risk factor to young adults and a variety of ways of how they can reduce the risk and lower their weight.
The annotated bib helped out so much doing this paper, without that it would have been difficult to achieve what I have so far, because the annotated bib helped map out what sources were the best, how they related to one another, and i could pull my references and some good information there. We turned the essay in on Tuesday and are waiting on our critiques. However in the meatime I am going to work on my Causes and Prevention and rebuttal part for the paper.
