We have a problem.
Please allow me the next few paragraphs to “vent” and share with you a piece of my heart and passion for Wellness in Lakeland.
“Soapbox Please!”
According to the latest information from the Centers for Disease Control, “Polk County holds the dubious title of being: “The Fattest County in Florida” with 30.4% of its adults registering as obese on the body mass index.
Our kids are among the fattest in the state.
This is unacceptable.
For years, local physicians have been fretting over the escalation in childhood and adult obesity and all of the related, so-called chronic degenerative diseases that accompany this condition, such as cardiovascular diseases, cancers and diabetes.
It’s time for a change.
Strategic Wellness is calling for a coalition of representatives from our health and wellness oriented services and businesses in our community to do something about this crisis. (What is your business or service doing to reverse this alarming trend? Let’s join forces to create a greater impact.)
We all know our fitness, nutritional and lifestyle habits need to change. There is no more study needed to identify the problem: We eat too much of the wrong foods and lead a sedentary life.
We need a simple, engaging solution to present an answer to the citizens of our community. We need to develop a tribe of people who are living and supporting one another in a healthy, wellness oriented lifestyle.
Living Healthfully shouldn't be an alternative lifestyle!
Lean Out Lakeland has been strategically developed to provide an answer.
2010 was the inaugural year of Lean Out Lakeland. With the help of our sponsors, Lean Out Lakeland mentored 110 clients into a healthful lifestyle with dramatic results! Our focus was on optomizing both fitness and nutrition. Participants learned to implement a nutrient dense eating style while incorporating doable, but intense exercise, essentials to healthy living.
Now, in 2012, with many healthful happenings going in on in Lakeland, we plan to continue working towards our stated goal of:
“Making Lakeland the healthiest city in Florida.”
