Last week I attended a great conference in Omaha focused specifically on adult weight management. Weight management is similar to a balance scale that involves give and take to make it just right! I learned a lot of great new tips and strategies to help my patients and participants of STRIVE 2 Survive succeed with their weight management goals.
One main key to success is evaluating your readiness to make lifestyle changes and how you are going to do it. This is always easier said than done, so a great way to start off is by making a list or brainstorming areas in your life that could use improvement and ways you are willing to make these changes. A food and exercise log is a great way to do this. It can be hard copy or done electronically. A favorite internet site of mine for food journaling is www.Livestrong.com and check out the “My Plate” section.

This week I get the opportunity to attend the American Dietetic Association’s Adult Weight Managment Certification and Training workshop. I am very excited about this training as it is going to give me new ideas and strategies to help make positive impacts in our patients and participants of STRIVE 2 Survive. In addition, I am a strong believer of ‘practicing what I preach’ so I am looking forward to learning some new tricks of the trade to help improve my own health as well. The American Dietetic Association has an excellent website for the public that offers sound and reliable nutrition information. If you’re looking to learn more, check it out at: http://www.eatright.org/Public/
Stay tuned to learn more about my experiences and training as well as more great online resources!
