Untitled[edit]

I added a section under the main heading "Career." It is called "Obesity in Saudi Arabia". This subsection includes statistics and cause/effects of the rising obesity in Saudi Arabia, which provides context for the work that Yasmin Altwaijri does. It includes 4 new sources and their citations. Charlyhenn (talk) 18:50, 11 September 2018 (UTC)charlyhenn[reply]

I am continuing to add to this article past my initial additions from last week. I believe that it would be useful to have a background on mental illness and obesity in Saudi Arabia as this is what Yasmin Altwaijri has focused her life's work on. I will be adding another section that includes this background information. Charlyhenn (talk) 17:40, 11 September 2018 (UTC)charlyhenn[reply]

I am a student, and plan to add edits to this article as an assignment. I will mostly be adding edits under the intro and personal intro sections. I will also be adding more reliable sources with my edits. Charlyhenn (talk) 20:38, 5 September 2018 (UTC) charlyhenn[reply]
