researched paper!

The overall topic of my paper is discussing obesity and the effects fast food has on it. My planned major is nutrition because I am so fascinated by everything about it and I think it would be such an interesting profesesion. One of the most common, but interesting topic is obesity. Who wouldn't want to learn about obesity? Everyone wants to know how people get fat and how they can prevent it too. I have found a lot of different sources and information about obesity and than others about fast food and obesity. There is no shortage of information for my research paper. A few problems I am having is find a lot of similiar information though. A lot of my sources are saying the same things so I do not know what source to choose from. I am not very good at deciding if a source is credibile either. I think they are all credible because if they are good enough to be found in a book or online shouldn't they have been edited and reviewed thoroughly? I also do not know if I am citing my sources correctly. I do not want to have points taken off for something so little. It is a very confusing process and I always have to recheck if I cited it right over and over again. Once I have all my information and I do not have to search for so many things I think this paper will blow by and it will not be hard to actually write the paper. I do not mind writing papers it is just the process of getting to the actual writing part that bothers me. To get through this I just need to keep a positive mind and relax. It takes a lot of time so I just have to sit down when i have nothing else to do and get started and don’t stop for anything. It is all about time management and procrastination to get papers done.

  1. Yeah i have the same problem. Credible sources?? How should i know. The fact that procrastinating during this paper is all i do is also not a good thing. I'm in a hole because my major is tough. (technology engineer) and my topic doesn't have much research on it so I am mostly going on what i see and read online. This is my least favorite paper for sure.
