Weight loss really can be as simple as shaving 100 calories per day. Weight loss experts agree that the best way to win the battle of the bulge is not through strict diets but by making small changes you can sustain for a lifetime. If you miss a day, no problem; just make up for it the next day. If you trim 100 calories per day, either by eating fewer calories or burning more, it should add up to a 10-pound loss at the end of a year. It's a simple mathematical formula; if you eat fewer calories than you burn, you will lose weight. So start today and before you know it, the pounds will come off.

Another thing that might help is looking at the sugar content of the foods you eat. One thing we seem to overlook is the affects of high blood sugar levels. So St. John’s is here to help with a FREE blood glucose screening set for this Wednesday, November 29th from 7:30 to 10 am at our Health Connection location inside Northpark Mall. We will also offer free blood pressure checks as well. For more information, call St. John’s Referral One at 625-2000 or log onto stj.com.
