If you love fast-food restaurants and are looking for an easy weight loss plan, there’s a diet just for you...it’s called The Fast Food Diet. It might sound like a gimmick, but the author of the book thinks you can lose weight easily -- if you choose menu items carefully and exercise regularly. Essentially, The Fast Food Diet is a six-week guide for making the healthiest selections from virtually every major fast-food restaurant menu, for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or snacks. Dieters can enjoy grilled chicken sandwiches, chili, baked potatoes, fruit parfaits, and even junior burgers. But don’t think for a minute that french fries or sodas sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup are part of the plan. In fact, fried foods are not allowed. Just keep in mind, this is the opinion of one doctor who’s getting paid for his diet plan.
If you’re like me, you’re busy and find it hard to get even an extra hour in the day. However, if you find an hour or two a week to spare, consider this. Or maybe your teen is looking for a rewarding summer job and considering a career in health care. Then here is the perfect position. St. John’s is looking for volunteers of all ages to work all over the hospital, from the gift shop to the ER. For more information about becoming a volunteer, contact St. John’s Referral One at 625-2000 or log onto stj.com.
