We had a great time at our WEIGHT MANAGEMENT class on April 8, 2010. There were 15 in attendance.
We learned that in order to lose weight we must eat a diet low in fat and carbohydrates, and control our portion sizes. We must also make better choices when it comes to food selections. Some recommendations would be to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables and DON'T SNACK BETWEEN MEALS.
We also learned the benifits of regular exercise. Just 30 minutes a day of moderate exercise can reduce our risk of diseases such as: Diabetes, heart disease, cancer, dementia and strokes. THAT'S RIGHT.....JUST 30 MINUTES A DAY!!
So let's GET UP AND MOVE. YOU are the ONLY one in control of YOUR body. YOU control what goes in your mouth and whether you are going to exercise or not. No one can make these decesions for you.
A special word of thanks is extended to Lori Mosley, NP from the Gregory Health and Wellness Center and Eddie Haughy from Anytime Fitness for a very informative class.
