said John Prochaska, Class of 2002 and a graduate
assistant at Health Education, Student Health
Services at A&M
The National Weight Control Registry
(NWCR) said reducing one’s diet by 500 calories
a day will result in one pound lost a week, while
eating 1,000 fewer calories a day will result in a
loss of two pounds per week. This weekly weight
loss totals 100 to 150 pounds a year.
“Students need to realize that weight loss is
not a quick fix,” Prochaska said. “Healthy lifestyle
changes, changes you can live with the rest of
your life, are key.”
While the low-carb diets claim to help you
lose weight quickly, most people do not follow
the programs through to the end, or keep those
habits for life.
“Cutting out a good number of carbs may be
easy at first,” Prochaska said. “But one must con
sider next year, or even live or 10 years down the
road.”
Walker also suggests that a person find which
diet will best fit their lifestyle.
“If the diet doesn’t seem like it can become a
lifestyle behavior, it’s probably not the best one to
get on,” Walker said.
While Atkins, South Beach and similar low-
carb diets claim to promote healthy, life-long eat
ing styles, many experts and organizations dis
agree. The World Health Organization (WHO)
recommends the nutritional benefits of carbohy
drates and plant-based eating. The Dietary
Guidelines for Americans recommend six to 11
servings a day from the bread group, even when
try ing to lose weight.
"Curbs are necessary to everyone’s diet,” Walker
said. “Carbs are your main source of energy.”
The Atkins and South Beach dietspro\ij(
of the necessary calories each day from
foods and few from carbs.
“Many times, people are fed upwitE
they can’t eat their favorite dish
Prochaska said.
These diets also allow food such ask
cheese, which can raise cholesterol levi
increase a person’s risk for heart disease an
cer. The American Heart Association urje
adults to limit fat intake to no more
cent of total daily calories.
“Making long-term changes in youreau
physical activity habits is the best wa
weight and to keep it off,” Walker said,
Klein said her schoolworkeventually
with her diet program.
"The diet did make me tired while has
but overall I think it’s a good diet. Ithelf
realize how bad you eat,” Klein said. "Ietj
quitting the diet because I hadalotoftej
week and couldn't keep up with the diet
quit, 1 w'ent on a carb-eating binge; thai
wanted to eat.”
For exercise and weight control, the Am
College of Sports Medicine suggests a
of 25 to 30 minutes of physical activityaij
for best results aim at 45 minutes.
“The exercise does not have tobed®
once,” George said. "Even try to just an
conveniences in life; park further away,or
stairs instead of the elevator.”
Klein said the Atkins diet has helpedlie
trol her portion intake. For instance,non ;
one doughnut instead of six, she said,
said she has decided diet pills and other fa!
aren’t the way to go for her long-term weip,
goals, she does admit Atkins isaquickfiv

in 'silly' felony drug case
LOVE
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.
(AP) — A judge Thursday
ordered rocker Courtney

drug charges after hearing
testimony alleging that she

Superior Court Judge Elden

“I’m on tour," the singer protested. But her
lawyer conferred with her and said she would
be there.
Before the judge took the bench, Love
smiled at reporters and pointed to her bare
shoulders.
"Strapless," she said, referring to her black
dress. “It’s a silly case. Silly dress.”
Beverly Hills police Officer Douglas Trerise
testified that he and two other officers
Love’s home early Oct. 2,2003, after she
police. He said Love handed the baggie:
to one of the officers.
“She said it was her stash. She said;
Percocet and ‘I don’t do that anymorea r
illegal,”’ Trerise testified. Percoce!
painkiller.
Earlier that night, Love was arrested h
Angeles police for investigation of disw
conduct and being under the influenced
trolled substance. The misdemeanor cai
being tried separately.
Prosecutor Jeffrey Stodel said outside
that Love is eligible for a drug-diversion
gram. The maximum possible sentenceitf
felonies is more than 3 1/2 years in prison
Love’s lawyer, Michael Rosenslein
reporters his client had prescriptions b
drugs. "The district attorney is turning thisi
circus and a witch hunt,” he said.
Stodel said, “We’re treating Ms. L«
same way we would treat anyone else*
illegal substances."
