5/13/09 Article Review

The weight loss article I chose this week is going from my love of the biggest loser. It was an interview with Jillian.

To me it was really interesting to read her thoughts on how to lose weight. I was surprised at one thing she said about how long a person should be working out and how you shouldn't work out more than 8 hours a week if you have less than 50 lbs to lose. I wonder what the intensity is that she is talking about because I am currently working out more than 8 hours a week but the intensity types are diferent. I do not work out more than 8 hours at a vigorous level so for now I am going to assume that's what she is talking about. Moderate wise is walking with the family and trying to keep active just by living.

From this article there were several other great links:
One was 9 foods to avoid giving your kids:

And the other link is about 10 dieting myths.

I found all of these very informative.
