Inspiring New Show!

CBC has just launched a new show going along with the Live Right Now initiative – Village on a Diet.

Village on a Diet is based on the small town of Taylor in British Columbia, Canada; having a population of approx. 1400 with 60% of the population overweight or obese.

On the first episode, all the residents of Taylor stepped onto a massive scale together! They were 1 ton over the national average weight!

Goal: Collectively their goal is to lose 1 ton of weight ( 2000lbs), in 3 months!

They are given the expertise of a physician, dietitian, psychologist and 2 personal trainers to support this goal; along with fitness equipment, and the town’s golf course which will frequently be used for obstacle courses to help get fit!

The show portrays real people from a woman pushing back her wedding day because she does not feel beautiful in her wedding dress, to a 14 year old boy having to be home schooled because of bullying for being overweight. A teacher trying to be a good role model to motivate her students, and parents for their children. It is a very heart felt show, with much emotion and incredible motivation and determination. I even shed a tear.

Highly recommended show! Nothing else of its kind out there. If you need that extra push to get motivated here it is!

Watch Mondays at 9pm or online at www.cbc.ca/liverightnow/village/

Learning about nutrition by incorporating the stars!

Celebnutrition.com was developed to teach others about nutrition by incorporating something they are interested in. I feel that most of the general public is interested in celebrities which is why so many businesses, movies, films, music, magazine, etc. are so successful. With that being said I plan to find nutritionally relevant gossip, use celebrities as examples to point out what they are doing right and wrong, health risks they may have and why, cracking down on the fad diets that don’t work. All nutrition information posted on my website is research based nutrition information; as I am a Registered Dietitian and must adhere to my College of Dietitians regulations of providing safe, ethical and competent nutrition services.
