Cost of Obesity, Overweight and Physical Inactivity in California-$41 Billion!

On July 9, the California Center for Public Health Advocacy released a new study on the cost of obesity in California. The study found that the cost of overweight, obesity, and physical inactivity had climbed to $41 billion in 2006, nearly double the amount reported in 2000. 

The study, The Economic Costs of Overweight, Obesity and Physical Inactivity Among California Adults 2006, also includes data on the cost of overweight, obesity and physical inactivity for counties with populations over 50,000. The study, accompanying press materials, and a list of policy recommendations are available at www.publichealthadvocacy.org.

The staggering cost of overweight, obesity and physical inactivity – costs borne by all of us in California – underscores the need for strategies that promote healthy eating and physical activity.

Fortunately, I have a solution that has proved successful for my clients over the last 19 years…Achieve 30 minutes of movement per day, eat right for your Metabolic Type and get a Nutrition & Lifestyle Coach to change poor habits.

We live in a crazy world right now: breathing rate is fast, water in minimal, energy drinks and coffee are top sellers, food is simple, processed and convenient, sitting at a desk is common, sleep and recovery are becoming less and less, family time is a rare occasion, more medications are being used to manage symptoms and stress is getting out of control. This is what I have been witnessing around the country and is a common story for our clients.

If you can relate to the above, check out the 90 Day Optimal Fitness Challenge. I guarantee that you will lose 15-24 pounds in 90 days and that most of your symptoms will go away through our Nutrition & Lifestyle Coaching model that improves overall health. Check out the program here: 90 Day Challenge

There are 27 spots remaining; however, the price of the program will be increasing August 14th by $20/month. Given I am individually coaching each person in the program weekly; I can only work with 27 more people. If you want a guaranteed life changing experience, check out this program now: 90 Day Challenge

This challenge is not for everyone, especially those who want to debate about life philosophies. It is for those that are committed to having the best life possible, free of obesity, medications and pain. It is for those who want a coach to assist them in the journey towards happiness.

I look forward to being your coach and seeing you succeed in whatever you desire.

 In health & fitness,
