My wife wanted to lose weight at the same time but didn’t have the same will power or determination as I did. She would continue to eat fast food on a daily basis right beside me, so it tested my will power to the max. I learned that I have a great deal of self discipline and determination. Instead of torturing myself I would give myself a one day cheat day. Even on my non-cheat days I learned to research the nutritional facts about fast foods before going to the restaurants so I would be able to keep track of my calories do I didn’t ruin my day.
By having the family do this exercise it will identify patterns that they can change and help to customize a dietary program for them. I would then have them identify what a realistic goal is for each family member, given that the Mom is basically a single mother during the week, the son is a diabetic with a fairly sedentary lifestyle and that the youngest member, the daughter is active in dance. I might also have a nutritionist come for a session to discuss what a healthy diet is and how easily they can achieve healthy eating even on a busy schedule or while traveling. A nutritionist would also be beneficial for the diabetic members of the household in explaining what they should eat and how to manage their diabetes in the most effective way. Outcome Evaluation I believe these interventions are appropriate for this family because they have a
everybody thought that’s really impossible but I was able to do that by doing the math that how many lbs. i have to lose per month and what will i have to do to lose it wrote down my weights and the weigh i want to have and by doing the math of ,how many lbs.

I have added more fresh fruits and vegetables to my family’s meals and snacks. There was also a time during this nine weeks that I learned just how inactive I truly am. Since we assessed our physical activity on the MyPyramid site, I have also added more physical activities into my day so that the energy I am creating with the diet changes is burnt off by the end of the day. Burning this energy off in a more active way is assisting me in my goal of losing weight. The assignment that affected me the most and that I enjoyed most was the activity that required us to track our food intake for 3 days.
I am now trying to teach my son portion control. He loves to eat and as his mother it is my job to teach him to make healthy choices and portion control. If my kids are thought that early in life then it will come natural to them as they grow older.

Two Methods of Weight loss Compare and Contrast Revised To fad diet or not to fad diet that is question, in our society today image is everything; causing many of us to choose a fad diet over a nutritional diet. Most people think to look good; they have to be slim and trim. What makes a “quick” weight loss better than a nutritional weight program? Time is precious in our eyes, and while we take our time to get ready to go places, we do not have time to go to the gym or workout and eat healthy. Quick is the appropriate word to use for fad diet, who wants to change their entire lifestyle when they can lose over ten pounds in one week?
Healthy Eating Plan Comparison Padrieka Cannon SCI 241 September 18, 2010 Rochelle Helminski This assignment forced me to really look at my diet at the start of this class was bad but has gotten worst. Based on the BMI I am considered overweight. As I did the first Diet Analysis assignment I noticed that I consumed large amounts of fats and sugars. I was very disappointed in my food choices and my lack of activity. The reason I believe that my diet is so poor is my life, I do a lot of eating on the run.
Losing weight 1)Myth: Dieting is a good way for me to lose weight. Fact: 95-98% of people who go on a diet gain back all the weight they lose plus more, according to a National Institute of Health study. If you talk to someone you know who is a long-term dieter, chances are they will tell you that they weigh more now than before they started dieting. Positive Step: The key to a healthy relationship with food is to eat when you are hungry, eat exactly what you are hungry for and stop when you are satisfied. When you eat in this way, your body will stabilize at its natural weight.
To increase my speed, I will also do sprints at the end of my long swim since being tired will make me work harder to meet my usual times. I will also sprint using only my upper body or work on kicking. Jogging only twice a week is probably not the best way to reach my goal to jog a 5K in less than 25 minutes. But I am cross-training (doing different activities to prepare for a different activity) which is healthier for my body so that I don’t get overuse injuries or develop my fitness in only one area. Hopefully, the combination of swimming and jogging will accomplish my goal but I will have to see to find out!
Gyms intimidate you. You think sweating is gross, and you’ve never had an athletic day in your life. Or maybe you’re someone who exercises sporadically and the results have come at a snail’s pace, if at all. For the past 10 years of my life, I also was an obese and the primary reasons were eating cheap fast food and high stress level at work. In 2012, I went to the doctor for a normal checkup and I was told that my blood pressure was at all time high and if I don’t lose weight I will be prone to a heart attack by age 30.
