    Resolutions to lose weight
    (2007-12-31) Finnegan, John; Melissa Nelson
    Welcome to Public Health Moment from the University of Minnesota. How do you keep that resolution to lose weight in the new year? Start by making realistic goals. That’s according to Melissa Nelson, a University of Minnesota epidemiologist. Nelson adds that you should keep track of how you’re doing—weighing yourself daily, for example, and writing down what you eat each day. Finally, Nelson says, it’s important to include regular physical activity. With another Public Health Moment, I’m John Finnegan.
