Heart Disease, Diabetes, Cancer,  and high blood pressure
are 
just SOME side effects of being overweight!  

If this is a concern for you I strongly suggest that you contact me for assistance in regaining back your health!
YOU are too important to your friends and family!

The U.S. Surgeon General has declared that obesity has reached epidemic proportions in the United States. Approximately:

  • 35 percent of women and 31 percent of men are considered seriously overweight
  • 15 percent of children between the ages of six and 19 are overweight

Public health officials warn that the results of physical inactivity and poor diet are catching up to tobacco as a significant threat to health. We are committed to helping you get healthy and stay that way. Learn about obesity prevention.

  • Couple that with a lack of regular exercise and it becomes very difficult for adults to maintain or lose weight.
  • Diet and exercise are vital strategies for losing and maintaining weight. A study by the National Weight Control Registry found that nearly all of 784 study participants who had lost at least 30 pounds and had maintained that loss for one year or longer, used diet and exercise to not only lose the weight but also to maintain the weight loss.
  • Continuing to use healthy behaviors can help you maintain weight. Be aware if you’re eating as a response to stress, and use exercise, activity or meditation to manage stress instead.
  • You can avoid weight cycling and maintain a healthy weight through physical activity and healthy eating.
