New Meaning to the term "Ugly American"

I am FLOORED by data from the CDC (Centers for Disease Control) re overweight and obesity in the US.

Here's the scoop, directly from the CDC site (http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/obesity/faq.htm):

What is the prevalence of overweight and obesity among U.S. adults?
Results of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey for 1999–2002 indicate that the following percentages of U.S. adults are overweight or obese:

An estimated 30 percent of U.S. adults aged 20 years and older - over 60 million people - are obese, defined as having a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher.

An estimated 65 percent of U.S. adults aged 20 years and older are either overweight or obese, defined as having a BMI of 25 or higher.

This is UGLY! It's a problem of epidemic proportions! And we can do something about it. Not dieting. Diets are short term solutions for long term problems. And many of them are simply not balanced. That's why I recommend the USANA RESET program, particularly within the context of Dr. Ray Strand's Healthy for Life Program, which uses RESET to kick start a 15-month supported and guided plan for making healthy life choices (with the side effect of permanent weight loss).

If you're one of the 2/3 of Americans with a weight problem, start with RESET. Try it for yourself -- and see what a wonderful difference it can make for you.

Let's make America BEAUTIFUL!
