Plan to get healthy with the Mayo Clinic Diet

OSMOND — I'll bet that you are all busy planning for the holidays. It's a great time of the year to spend time with family and friends, but sometimes the holiday foods, drinks, parties and gatherings lead to extra pounds and inches. That's NOT what we planned for. Let me ask you. . . how many of you are planning to stay healthy or get healthy this holiday season?

Now is the time to think about this and start making some plans.

The Mayo Clinic Diet is all about planning. Planning to eat smart. Planning to move more. Planning to live longer and healthier. Planning to make a permanent lifestyle change.

Old habits die hard, but with planning, habits can be changed. The Mayo Clinic Diet, a 10-week weight loss program, has it boiled down to five simple habits to help you keep it from coming back. Plus the Mayo Clinic Diet has found that what works best when it comes to weight loss, is to keep it SIMPLE.

Eighteen participants completed the fall class and lost a total of 267.1 pounds with the highest individual losing 30.6 pounds. They also lost a total of 33.25 waistline inches with 6.75 inches being the greatest individual loss. They did an excellent job and are proof that this program works.

We are planning an introduction to explain the Mayo Clinic Diet on Tuesday, Jan. 7, at the Osmond General Hospital activity room at 8#s1p1#Wkh#riÚfldo#vwduw#gdwh#ri#wkh# program is planned for Jan. 14.

As you're planning for the holidays, plan to get healthy for 2020. Call (402) 748-3393 to sign up for the Next Mayo Clinic Diet class.

Happy Holidays from Deb Schmit, RN, and Deb Jacobi, LPN, Mayo Clinic Diet instructors.
