This is because this is the group most prone to obesity due to their economic status where they are the group who are most economically stable (Simon, Pronk, Martinson, Kessler, Beck, Wang, 2004).

People buying in grocery are the ones who might be aware of problems associated with obesity. People in offices are also prone to obesity due to their lack of exercise and also from their high tendency to eat junk foods (Simon et al., 2004).

Those in attendance will give necessary information on the best ways of dealing with obesity. The information in books and articles is useless unless read and implemented, therefore, what is essential is to find out what various people have done in practice and has worked in dealing with obesity (Danese, Moffitt, Harrington, Milne, Polanczyk, Pariante & Caspi, 2009).

Those in attendance will be able to share life experiences on the problem associated with obesity and thus help in identifying ways of dealing with this problem. There will be doctors available to help give their own views and medical solutions to those who are obese. Those in attendance will be able examine their health status. The utmost benefit will be to obese persons as they will be able to share and learn ways of dealing with obesity without affecting their health negatively (Danese et al., 2009).
