so this is pretty cool ....

…. and it’s a program that my work offers.  it’s called the eat right and get active challenge.   the site says “Do you want to be more active but just can’t seem to get yourself moving? Are you trying to eat better and maintain a healthy weight? This online program from the American Cancer Society will help get and keep you motivated to maintain a healthy lifestyle and reduce your risk of cancer. This challenge will not only help you set personal goals based on want YOU want to achieve, it also will provide you with unique tools and resources to help you achieve those goals in a fun and enjoyable way.”  yes, yes, YES!!!!  

so i’ve found that the tools are pretty amazing.  every weight loss guru in the world tells you that one of the most effective ways to lose weight is to be mindful of your daily intake and expenditures.  keep a food journal.  keep an activity journal.  you can do all of that at eatrightgetactive.org .  on this site you can track your food, your activity, and your goals and it will create a personalized report with graphs and pictures (perfect for the visual learner).  i especially like that red light, green light, yellow light status feature … although i’m really not sure how many red lights i can handle …
