Chilton Memorial Hospital Dietician Provides Free Facts About Fad Diets on December 3 |
Date : - 21/10/2008 |
Lets face it: women are obsessed with weight loss. Everyone is talking about the latest and greatest diets advertised on commercials, television shows and magazines. But, are any of them worth trying? Chilton Memorial Hospital's "Inspire for Women!" program offers a free class to provide the facts about fad diets. "Fit or Fiction" will be held on Wednesday, December 3, from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m., at Chilton Health Network, 242 West Parkway, Pompton Plains (just 1.5 miles down the street from the Hospital), in the Second Floor Conference Center.
Chilton Memorial Hospital Clinical Dietitian Christina Lavner, RD, will offer valuable information about what diets are the best choice, the likelihood of sticking with a fad diet, what happens when you go off the fad diet and what is a good diet overall. She will also speak about proper portion sizes and healthy ways to lose the weight.
Fad diets promise quick results and are easy to implement. The one thing they have in common is that they seldom promote sound weight loss. More importantly, the results tend to last for only a short period of time and require extra weight maintenance if used long term. Join us for a discussion about popular fad diets such as Atkins, low salt, South Beach, Flat belly and The Zone, and learn for yourself which ones actually work.
