The first year-round weight-loss program for children and teens in the country, AOS teaches students how to make healthy eating and exercise priorities in their lives forever. For AOS students, losing weight not only helps them look and feel better, it fundamentally transforms their lives—encouraging them to build self-esteem, combat depression, and increase their academic performance. In The Sierras Weight-Loss Solution for Teens and Kids, the founders and program leaders of AOS offer parents everywhere a 12-week proven program based on the school's curriculum. The program gives week-by-week meal plans, recipes, and an exercise regimen, as well as crucial advice for getting the whole family involved in maintaining long-term weight loss. And, it helps kids change their thinking about food, and stay focused and committed to a new healthy lifestyle forever. With inspiring stories from AOS graduates throughout, this book provides the most effective blueprint to ensure lasting success. Academy of the Sierras has been featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post, USA Today, People, the Sacramento Bee, and the Los Angeles Times, as well as on CNN, Dateline, The Dr. Phil Show, and NPR. In addition to their original school near Fresno, California, AOS is opening a second school in Brevard, North Carolina, in the spring of 2007. In 2008, they are opening a school in the northeast. AOS is operated by Healthy Living Academies, which also runs six Wellspring summer weight-loss camps across the country.

Obesity in children is growing at a frighteningly fast rate. There are more obese children now than ever before. Parents are letting their carelessness with their own diets spill over into their children’s lives. Here are a few points to think about when trying to prevent obesity and health problems for your children. Small children are normally energetic and often require snacks in-between meals. It is most important to choose healthy snacks for your children. Alternative Snacks Vegetable snacks like carrot sticks and celery boats are a good and fun alternative to chips and “junk food” snacks. Fruit Can Be Substituted For Candies and Sugar Snacks Soda and sugar snacks like candy produce hyperactivity in many young children and will sow the seeds for problems later in life.

Book excerpt: The prevalence of childhood obesity is so high in the United States that it may reduce the life expectancy of today's generation of children. While parents and other adult caregivers play a fundamental role in teaching children about healthy behaviors, even the most positive efforts can be undermined by local environments that are poorly suited to supporting healthy behaviors. For example, many communities lack ready sources of healthy food choices, such as supermarkets and grocery stores. Or they may not provide safe places for children to walk or play. In such communities, even the most motivated child or adolescent may find it difficult to act in healthy ways. Local governments-with jurisdiction over many aspects of land use, food marketing, community planning, transportation, health and nutrition programs, and other community issues-are ideally positioned to promote behaviors that will help children and adolescents reach and maintain healthy weights. Local Government Actions to Prevent Childhood Obesity presents a number of recommendations that touch on the vital role of government actions on all levels-federal, state, and local-in childhood obesity prevention. The book offers healthy eating and physical activity strategies for local governments to consider, making it an excellent resource for mayors, managers, commissioners, council members, county board members, and administrators.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The media inundates us with messages about the "epidemic" of overweight and obese Americans, and they make dire predictions about the health of kids and teenagers. Meanwhile nutritionists and doctors often say that kids and teenagers should not diet. Psychologists add that girls should never be told they need to diet or hear negative comments about their size, for fear of adding to the number of teens today starving themselves, choosing unhealthy dieting options, and developing eating disorders. This important book provides young readers with the information they need to sort out these mixed messages and use their critical thinking skills to weigh the data and to understand healthy choices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children's health has made tremendous strides over the past century. In general, life expectancy has increased by more than thirty years since 1900 and much of this improvement is due to the reduction of infant and early childhood mortality. Given this trajectory toward a healthier childhood, we begin the 21st-century with a shocking developmentâ€"an epidemic of obesity in children and youth. The increased number of obese children throughout the U.S. during the past 25 years has led policymakers to rank it as one of the most critical public health threats of the 21st-century. Preventing Childhood Obesity provides a broad-based examination of the nature, extent, and consequences of obesity in U.S. children and youth, including the social, environmental, medical, and dietary factors responsible for its increased prevalence. The book also offers a prevention-oriented action plan that identifies the most promising array of short-term and longer-term interventions, as well as recommendations for the roles and responsibilities of numerous stakeholders in various sectors of society to reduce its future occurrence. Preventing Childhood Obesity explores the underlying causes of this serious health problem and the actions needed to initiate, support, and sustain the societal and lifestyle changes that can reverse the trend among our children and youth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the National Center for Health Statistics, there has been a dramatic increase in obesity in Americans since the 1990s.Almost 9 mil ion (15%) children between the ages of 6 and 19 are overweight, and this number is still growing, according to information gathered between 1999 and 2000 (triple the number since 1980). The information has also shown that another 15% of children between the ages of 6 and 19 are at risk of becoming overweight.Obesity is defined as having an excessive accumulation of body fat which will result in the person’s body being about 20% heavier than their ideal body weight.Although teens may have fewer weight related health issues than adults, if they're already overweight, they are more likely to be an overweight or obese adult. Teens who are overweight (in fact people of all ages that are overweight) are at risk from a number of health issues: Heart DiseaseDiabetesHigh Blood PressureStrokeCancer Those teens who are obese may find that they are physically unfit, have a low self esteem, and general unhealthy wellbeing. Many obese people will also tend to have a shorter life expectancy than those who are the right weight for their body size. Plus, it can also lead to social disabilities and unhappiness, which in turn may cause them stress and in some cases, may make them mental y ill.A study in May 2004 suggested that overweight children are more likely to be involved in bullying than those children who are a normal weight. But they can not only be the victims of bullying, they may be the perpetrators as well.The development of their own personal identity and body image is an important goal for any teenager.There are a number of causes for obesity which center around an imbalance in the teens energy they put into their bodies, (calories that they obtain from the food they eat) and the energy they release from their bodies (how good their metabolism is, and how much physical activity they take part in). Often when a teen is overweight, there is a problem with the nutritional value of their diet. It could also be a result of psychological, familial or physiological issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overweight Teenagers: Don't Bear the Burden Alone is a straightforward guide designed to speak frankly to teenagers about what overweight is and how to confront it safely and effectively. Dr. Michael D. LeBow, an expert in the field of obesity studies, stresses that young people must not judge their self-worth solely by reading a weight scale. Sensitive to teenagers' lack of self-esteem, the author urges consideration of the pros and cons of controlling overweight. Through a series of revealing accounts with overweight teenagers and their parents, Dr. LeBow looks upon a number of important issues, in particular the verbal abuse inflicted by peers; the risks of possible illness in adulthood (e.g., coronary heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, cancer); the importance of acknowledging and overcoming obstacles; the value of "positives" in controlling actions and behavior to design a better overall environment; and the contradictory eating protocols befalling teens at home, school, or in public places. As a compassionate, exceptionally beneficial advisor, the author maintains that those who want to be thinner deserve access to safe, rational methods of weight loss. In addition, the text is clarified by a comprehensive set of Recommended Dietary Allowances tables and an appendix of suggested readings. Overweight Teenagers not only teaches, but advocates the challenge to lose overweight without jeopardizing oneself, without suffering stratagems destined to damage the body and depress the spirit. By enlisting and accepting the aid of parents, doctors, and teachers, teenagers will discover that they need not bear alone the burden of overweight. Guidance counselors and school administrators, physicians, nutritionists, behavioral psychologists, and other health professionals will find this an important resource for helping teens.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s hard to decide which is more frightening--the “food” teenagers enjoy, or the things they say about their bodies. Whether it’s your son’s passion for chips and soda or your daughter’s announcement that she “feels fat,” kids’ attitude about how they look and what they should eat often seem devoid of common sense. In a world where television and school cafeterias push super-sized sandwiches while magazines feature pencil-thin models, many teens feel pressured to starve themselves and others eat way too much. Blending her experience as the mother of four with results from a survey of nearly 5,000 teens, Dr. Diane Neumark-Sztainer shows you how to respond constructively to “fat talk,” counteract negative media messages, and give your kids the straight story about nutrition and calories, the dangers of dieting, and eating right when they’re away from home. Full of examples illustrating the challenges teens face today, this upbeat and insightful book is packed with great ideas that will help kids everywhere feel better about their looks and make healthier choices about eating and exercise.
