I would limit it. Why don't you document the food intake of a group of teens?

How about following Bobpursley's advice about doing a poster for the school lunchroom. Research the amount of calories needed for a normal teenager.

I can envision a poster with two columns or sections.

In one section, have a picture of a slim, attractive person. Then show a reasonable day's food intake with quantities and calories for each.

In the other section, have a picture of an obese person. Show the food that an obese person might eat in a day. Again include quantities and calories for each.

I have an obese friend who eats two or three times the amount I do at each meal. When one piece of candy satisfies me, she eats three or four pieces of that candy. The same is true of everything else I've seen her eat.
