Make Good Health a Family Affair
Focus on healthy changes and keep a positive attitude. New behaviors take time to establish as habit. Don't worry about the number on the scale. Concentrate on eating healthy foods and getting enough exercise.
Make adjustments when needed. Everyone should try to stay with the plan until new habits are formed. But the family also should have the flexibility to change the plan and make new goals when plan isn't working for the family.
Families can find support and information for weight and exercise goals from health professionals or from many Web sites.
