Like so many things in life, health, nutrition and fitness are learned skills that require practice and dedication to perfect. For many overweight children and teens who are struggling to lose pounds, behavior change is both the cornerstone of successful weight loss and the greatest challenge.
Research tells experts that is takes about three months to establish a new behavior. Just as children learn to play a musical instrument from a skilled teacher or how to do calculus from a professor, sometimes children need to learn how to lose weight from professionals.
At Bon Secours In Motion?s Youth Fitness Program, a team of tried-and-true weight loss experts can teach you and your children the skills you need to achieve and maintain behavior change. Treating child and adolescent obesity needs to be a family effort; families need to change behaviors. Research shows that families who change their behavior together are the most successful.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, one-third of American adults are obese. Despite a huge, billion-dollar weight-loss industry, it?s estimated only 20 percent of Americans who try to lose weight successfully keep it off after one year.
Bon Secours In Motion also works with local schools in Hampton Roads to help educate children about the importance of making healthy decisions and getting active. If you?re interested in bringing an In Motion specialist to speak at your school, contact us!
