Make a commitment. Weigh yourself once a week and keep track of progress. Be sure to exercise 5 days each week. Check the Nourish Net pages for hints and support. The Nourish Net weight management plan is based on following the USDA Nutritional Guidelines and the Food Pyramid.
Weight varies depending on a person's body structure, gender, age, and activity level.
Adjust the exercise and number of servings with the range specified on the daily log to ensure a comfortable weight loss or gain of 1-2 pounds per week or to keep your weight at its maintenance level. Weight changes and new exercises can cause both beneficial and harmful physical changes. We advise consultation with a physician before starting any such program. This is particularly important if you have an existing medical condition. The USDA Nutritional Guidelines recommend that each day you eat at least 6 but no more than 11 servings of bread, cereal, rice and pasta.
