Council bans new fast-food outlets in South L.A - (LA Times Report)

The one-year moratorium, proposed by Councilwoman Jan Perry, is aimed at attracting restaurants serving healthier fare to the area, where a study found 30% of children are obese. A law that would bar fast-food restaurants from opening in South Los Angeles for at least a year sailed through the Los Angeles City Council on Tuesday. The council approved the fast-food moratorium unanimously, despite complaints from representatives of McDonald's, Carl's Jr. and other companies, who said they were being unfairly targeted.

Here's a snippet of the article, click the link below to read more... Writing down every morsel doubles weight loss Dieters who kept daily food diaries were more successful, new study says In the struggle to lose weight, picking up a pen might be just as useful as putting down the fork. That’s according to a new study that found that people who kept daily food diaries lost twice as much weight or more as those who didn’t keep a tally of their meals. Nearly 1,700 Kaiser Permanente study participants agreed to exercise and adopt a healthy diet, but those who took the extra step of keeping track of what they consumed got something of a booster charge in their weight loss.

Sherry-Girl	I am looking for someone that is following ww. Is there anyone out there?? Posted: 2007-08-27 19:22:56
Alikena	Hi Sherry-Girl, Firstly, welcome to this group! Have you tried using the search function on the Support Groups Browse page to see if there are any ww groups out there? If not this info might help... 1. You can search by Title / Description: - type 'ww' or 'weight watchers' into the first search box. - then click the first 'Search' button directly below Or ... 2. You can search using Categories and Tags: - in the second search box click the 'Diet Plans' folder, - then the 'Weight Watchers' sub category. - now click the 'Search' button below If there are any existing ww groups they should be displayed in the search results. I hope that is useful to you and anyone else looking for a group who are interested in particular topic. And if you don´t find a group, if you're a Gold member, you could always start your own :) Alikena Posted: 2007-08-28 06:57:18
javaluuver	There is a WW group, but it's got 'limited visibility" ???? How come some groups you can see, some you can't and then can't join? I would like to see a WW group too ... Posted: 2007-08-29 11:15:54
Alikena	Hi javaluuver, I hope the info below helps clarify how Support Groups work... Whoever manages the group can decide whether to make their group: a) an Open Access group - which is open for all to join instantly b) an Restricted by Administrator group - where all new members must be approved by the leader of the group c) a Closed Access group - no new members can join a closed group. If they so wish, the group's leader can reopen the group to admit new members at any time. To find out more you can visit the Support Groups Info page or read the FAQ's I´m sure lots of EP members are interested in weight watchers so you can either wait until somebody else starts a ww group or alternatively create your own. Take care Alikena Posted: 2007-08-30 06:29:51
Sherry-Girl	Hello javaluuver, I noticed that, but I also noticed there is only one member in the group. So I don't think it is active?? Posted: 2007-09-08 12:07:55

Makuahine93 Hit a plateau it seems in my weight loss. I normally walk on the treadmill and am starting interval training to walk my first 5K soon. Any suggestions on ramping things up a bit?
