Cathy Thomson
Nutrition Consultant
Huron County Health Unit .,
-Now that the New Year has -arrived, many
people are surveying their waistlines and
deciding to do something. Before you go off
' the deep end, consider what you want to do:
Your first priority should be great health
for 1987. If you need to trim a few pounds,
OK, but don't ruin your health by following a
bizarre diet. Follow some basic guidelines,
and you can lose weight and feel great.
First of all, set a realistic goal that you
can attain in a short period of time. You can
safely lose one to two pounds ( 12 to 1 kg. )
per week, so losing 15 pounds by Easter is a
sensible goal. Even if you need to lose more
than 15 pounds, setting intermediate goals
helps motivate you. Diets that promise `•
faster weight loss are usually not healthy
and rarely lead to lasting weight loss.
Next, be sure you eat a variety of
wholesome foods while reducing. Canada's
Food Guide recommends for adults two ser-
vings of milk and milk products,"two (3 oz.)
servings of meat; fish, poultry and 'alter- - -

of fruit and vegetables. All this adds up to'
1,200-1,400'calories - a fine weight loss diet
for ahpost everyone. Keep a lid on butter
and •, margarine, fried foods, and sugary
sweet foods. They can add extra calories in -
a hurry with little nutritional bonus.
If you want to follow a popular diet, com-
pare its recommedations with Canada's
Food Guide. If it's very different, you run
the risk of being nutritonally short-changed. ,.
And don't leave out exercise. Our bodies
were, made fdr action, the mo of it the bet-
ter. Take a brisk walk, sign up, for an exer-
cise class, try swimming, cross country ski-
ing or jogging. When exercise. is a daily
habit, you'll get in better shape, and your
weight reduction efforts will definitely be
more successful. Together, a 'sensible food
intake and"regular exercise are the best why
to take weight off and keep it off.
If you need more help, you can call the
registered professional dietitian at your
local hospital. Individual diet counselling is
covered by OHIP if your doctor refers you.
