US Surgeon General comments on Health At Every Size

Posted by: Rochelle In: Fitness & Health|Life|Weight Management|Whole Health|YouTube & Other Videos

Dr. Regina Benjamins remarks are moving.;) “We can be healthy and fit at any size or any weight.”

After 15 years in the size acceptance world, I was stunned when I viewed this video. Is it because she knows that diets don’t work? Is it because she understands the self-deprication that comes with cycling in and out of an active lifestyle? Is is because she is a woman?

Whatever her reason for stating we can be healthy and fit at any size or weight may come as a relief for many. The bottom line is in the video – eat nutritiously and move your body. This video may literally reshape the way this country procedes forward with health.

If you appreciate her comments, call her at 301-443-4000. You will be pleasantly surprised at how well you are received.
