 ### What central question are you interested in exploring? Why are you interested in exploring this question?

 *This should be the big picture question that you ask; use at least 5
 sentences to describe why you are interested in it.*
 
+I want to know about what relationship exists, if any, between an adult (18 +) 
+person's age and their weight (I'll use metric).
+I'm trying to find out at what age, on average, do people experience a dramatic
+weight gain or loss, if at all?
+I'm curious to find out if such a dramatic increase or decrease in weight can
+be captured in a one-time snapshot database, where individuals are NOT tracked 
+over a period of time, but ONLY once.

 ### What specific research questions will you investigate?
 
 *List 2-4 specific research questions. Each should be answerable 
 using your data set.*
+What number or percentage can be used to accurately indicate a 
+dramatic change in weight by age? How do I determine what "dramatic" is?
