OK, so my assessment that I am pleasingly plump doesn’t carry any weight with those I love. But do you have to equate health with weight? Now what excuse can I use? Seriously, thanks for the book and the campaign!

First, the title of this booklet shouldn’t be "Aim for a Healthy Weight," it should be "Losing weight if you are overweight." There is absolutely no discussion of how to attain a healthy weight if someone is underweight, which occurs less often than obesity in the US but does occur nonetheless. Thus it perpetuates the misconception that thinner is always healthier. Second the advice of substituting certain foods for "healthier" choices often implies that reasonably healthy foods (like whole milk, granola, avocados) are equal culprits in a poor diet as truly empty calories in fast foods or deserts. Please, this is like telling someone who is just leaning how to swim that their form in the butterfly is bad. Concentrate on the basics like not eating fast food, limiting portions, before you worry about if they are drinking 2% milk. Third who wrote the ethnic section? Masala just means a blend of spices, not the calorie or fat content of the dish.

This booklet has a lot of good information to be used for class settings and for the individ. I truly like the BMI chart--for everyone to put it inside their kitchen cabinet so they see it often w/o showing it to the whole world. The best is the Moving Forward--setting goals--rewarding success. Very helpful and inspirational.

my husband and I just woke up to the fact that we are both overweight, but didn’t really know where to start. I found this site and it’s given us everything we need to set goals and start losing weight.

We are kicking off an EatWell/Live Well Campaign with members of our local Chamber of Commerce. It is a voluntary program that lasts for eight weeks to encourages participants to loss weight by walking 10,000 steps a day, eat five fruits and vegetables and reduce sugary beverages. Our jurisdiction includes the cities of Barberton and Norton in Northeast Ohio. This interactive website is an excellent resource that we would never be able to afford to create. Thanks.

The booklet is very appealing visually and very informative. My clients have expressed special appreciation for the restaurant section. The BMI chart has been an "eye opener" for some. It is NOT expensive in quantities and clients feel like that they are really getting something for their money - better than black & white copies.

Informative
Loaded with information worth the price

It’s free via PDF
The price is obviously due to the cost of
making the publication. It’s free via PDF.
Everyone wants something for nothing.
