To eat or not to eat That is the question millions of Americans struggle with every day as they fight the battle of the bulge. But it seems to be a losing battle. Despite the millions spent on diet pills and diet plans Americans today are heavier than ever. There are many reasons for this nationwide weight gain but experts agree that the main cause is lack of exercise.

In some essays the introduction runs three or even four paragraphs. The key is to have an introduction that is in proportion with the rest of the essay. If your essay is two pages long one paragraph is probably sufficient for the introduction. If it goes longer the body of your essay where you develop your main points and support them with evidence and examples will lack the room it needs to completely state your case. But if your essay is ten or twelve pages long it may take a couple of paragraphs to properly introduce your topic and thesis. You might have a more detailed anecdote for example or spend two or three paragraphs describing a scenario that sets up your thesis.
