The Healthy Weight Commitment Foundation, comprised of sixteen food product companies, have ‘pledged to cut 1 trillion calories from the food they sell’ as well as change products to reduce calories, fat, sugar, sodium and portion size. The four main pillars of the Let’s Move program are to make schools healthier, increase the amount of physical activity children get at school and at home, give parents the information to make healthy decisions, and increase access to food for all families. It seems one major componen...

Just one look at Kate Hudson, Evangeline Lilly, Kelly Ripa, and Anna Paquin’s lithe limbs and you’ll be reaching for the dumbbells. How’s that for motivation?

But here’s the thing – other than Esquire’s hat-tip to Giulia, we’re kind of pissed about the piece. It features portraits of women in their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s, but frankly, the magazine doesn’t make the prospect of female aging look so hot.

Poor diet and lack of exercise has led to an epidemic among children in which childhood obesity has increased by three times over the past 30 years. One in three children are overweight or obese, and the country spends $150 billion each year to treat conditions related to obesity. Let’s face it – our kids are fat! Overweight Kid Being overweight as a child can lead to the development of high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, orthopedic problems, depression, and a number of other diseases and ailments. Overweight adolescents have a 70% chance of becoming overweight or obese adults. Recently, First Lady Michelle Obama has been leading a nationwide campaign called “Let’s Move”...
