If you have ever said to
yourself "I can't lose
weight" or "I don't know
how to manage my weight,"
this workbook is for you.
Teeple says in her book
Overweight is a disease,
you will learn that being
overweight is not "your
fault," it is your disease.
"You will learn how to self -
manage that disease,
because there is no other
cure. Being overweight is a
disease that will rob you of
your abilities, your mobil-
ity and your health. The
best and only prescription
is lifelong self-manage-
ment. In this book you will
find the tools, the inspira-
tion and the guidance to
do just that," she says.

Time: 7:00 pm
Location: Council Chambers — Central Huron Municipal Office, 23 Albert St.,

DATED AT The Municipality of Central Huron Brenda Maclsaac, Clerk
THIS 4th day of February, 2015 Municipality of Central Huron
Purpose and Effect:
The proposed zoning by-law amendment adds provisions to Section 3 of the
Municipality of Central Huron Zoning By -Law for the purpose of automatically
making necessary amendments to the zoning bylaw as a result of surplus farm
residence severances. When the County of Huron or its delegate has approved a
severance of a surplus farm residence the appropriate zone map in the zoning
by-law shall be amended to change the AG1 Zone to AG2 for the retained parcel
and AG4-21 for the severed parcel. The AG2 zone will prohibit a residence on
the retained lands and the AG4-21 zone will limit livestock uses and recognize
all legally established buildings on the severed property. These changes will
remove the requirement for most surplus severances to be subject to an
application for rezoning in addition to the severance application.
This by-law amends the Municipality of Central Huron Zoning By -Law, 40-2010.

lot of "getting healthy"
coaching for many years.
"After working with folks
to help them manage their
weight for such a long time
I decided to put all the
ideas, learnings, resources
that I have gathered into a
workbook so that others
can share in the knowledge
and learn the skills to man-
age their weight and their
health. I approach over-
weight like I approach
every other disease -
therein lies the difference
between "going on a diet"
and learning to live in a
way that is healthy and let-
ting those new behaviors
result in taking off/keeping
off excess weight."
"While Dr. Teeple
approaches the person
struggling with obesity in a
respectful way, she also
challenges us with humor
and real life stories. This
book gave me hope that I
could succeed in making
changes, confidence that I
could take control of my
own health and motivation
that obesity management
is possible even for me!" is
one testimonial from a
nurse practitioner.
