Weight Management If you are overweight, you are certainly not alone. Experts state that one out of three Americans is overweight. According to scientists from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one in three U.S. children born in 2000 will become diabetic unless many more people start eating less and exercising more. Excess weight has been linked to diabetes, heart disease, chronic fatigue, hypertension, arthritis, colon cancer, prostate cancer in men and breast cancer in women. Sedentary lifestyles combined with high fat diets contribute greatly to the problem. If you are determined to lose weight, most health experts agree that healthy eating and regular exercise is the best way to do it. The good news is that a weight loss of 10 to 20 pounds can improve your health. The secret for successful weight loss is simply to eat fewer calories than you use. For every pound of fat you lose, you must burn 3,500 calories. This is accomplished by adopting a weight loss program that motivates you to eat healthy food and exercise more. Our Weight Management program teaches the value of healthy nutrition, the benefits of exercise and provides emotional support in a small group setting.
