MY NEW WEIGH OF LIFE |
|
| |
“My New Weigh of Life,” a weight-management program that
stresses losing weight and keeping it off, is offered periodically by
Centerville Clinics and the Washington County Cooperative Extension
Service. Sheilia Burcin, Washington County Extension Director and a
registered dietition, and Henrietta Shader, Health Education Coordinator
at Centerville Clinics, teach the course. |

What makes this course different,
says Ms. Shader, is that it includes strategies for maintaining weight
loss. She notes, “This program stresses how to lose weight safely and
effectively, and then what needs to be done after the person loses the
weight.” |
|

|
| |
|
|
|
| |
Noting that losing 5 or 10 pounds
can have a significant health benefit even for those people who are obese
or seriously overweight, Ms. Shader points out, “The goal should be to
commit to lifelong changes, notably increasing physical activity and
cutting caloric intake.” |
