Dieting Dos and Don’ts: How to Lose Weight While Staying Healthy this New Year’s

scale and measuring tapeHave you made a New Year’s resolution to lose weight? If so, you are not alone. A Harris Poll shows that losing weight is number one of the top 10 New Year’s resolutions in America, with the goal of eating healthier coming in third.

It’s not surprising that losing weight is top on our list of intentions. Forty percent of the adult population in the US is obese, causing health officials to declare it a “growing epidemic.” The Harvard School of Public Health says that obesity negatively affects nearly every aspect of health, “from reproductive to respiratory function to memory and mood.”
