WellBalance Announces Addition of Chief Medical Officer to Scientifically Based Weight Loss Camps and Health Programs

Dr. Gary Curran WellBalance Chief Medical Officer

Asheville, NC (PRWEB) May 09, 2012

WellBalance fitness and weight loss camps recently announced the addition of Gary Curran, MD, as Chief Medical Officer. Dr. Curran has successfully started and operated a family practice where emphasis has been paid to helping families instill healthier habits. In his role as Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Curran will advise on the medical data collection from weight loss campers, assist with data analysis, consult on specific camper conditions, and provide insight on WellBalance’s fitness and weight loss approach

“Dr. Curran has an exceptional academic pedigree matched with in-depth professional experience helping adolescents and adults make healthier food and activity choices,” commented John Gordon, CEO of WellBalance, “We didn’t want a researcher without any practical knowledge about the obstacles families face in making fitness and weight loss choices.”

Dr. Curran advised and volunteered for many years at innovative diabetes-focused Camp Coqui and has special training in Wilderness Medicine. He received his medical degree from University of Michigan, a Top 5 medical school rated by U.S. News & World Report, and his undergraduate degree from University of Virginia.

“In my practice I see the scope and effects of obesity every day. It’s tragic, because by the time they graduate high school, children have already developed the diseases associated with obesity,” continued Chief Medical Officer Dr. Curran, ”There’s a very strong family component,including genetic, environmental, and behavioral factors. Most families have no idea where to begin because there are so many things that need to change.”

Dr. Curran’s experience in his practice as well as his volunteer work with Camp Coqui demonstrated the efficacy of comprehensive intervention programs like WellBalance weight loss camps.

“It’s nearly impossible to change lifestyle factors with a child in their normal family setting,” observed Dr. Curran, “WellBalance not only creates the opportunity for kids to totally change their environment and behavior, but it also works with families to teach them how to support their child’s efforts and success in weight loss and weight management.”

Dr. Curran is a noted and accomplished competitive runner who has won many local and regional races and is an avid hiker and climber as well. He is married with two children and lives in Ashevile, North Carolina.

WellBalance designed the ME Plan to Motivate & Educate on what medical research shows works for sustainable fitness, weight loss, and health success. Founded by professionals and guided by experts who have led some of the largest behavioral health, mental health, and treatment programs in the country, WellBalance is working to become the fitness and weight loss leader with a focus on improving an individual’s overall health. WellBalance developed the WellBalance Health Score© to rate a person’s overall medical, emotional, and fitness health status as well as show a person’s progress towards health norms. WellBalance operates adolescent summer camps, local programs, and fitness programs for adults. For additional information please visit http://www.wellbalance.com or call (800) 975-0435.

More Abs Diet Press Releases

Question by vitruvian_88: ABS diet meal planning?
I’m planning to start the ABs diet lifestyle as they call it and I do know all the powerfoods and that I have to eat 6 times a day. I also have the book to do the workouts from. What I don’t understand is how each meal should be? Can I put all powerfoods in one meal if I want, for example? What things should I prepare before hand, cuz I know that when I come back home from uni I’m too lazy to cook something so then I end up ordering fast food. Please help me with the meals…

Best answer:

Answer by logic_1873
Hello. I have the abs diet workout that I had ordered from mens health. what i can tell you about your meals is if you want to stay with your diet cook them ahead of time exp.dinner. and i say for your in between meals “snacks” choose a protein shake. I like the brand maximum protein from GNC. it tastes good and you dont feel so dreaded to drink it.. Im sure you already know what is heathy to eat and not but i am going to say this, is you really want to burn fat eat alot of green veggies”frozen nothing added.” it doesnt really matter which order you put your foods in but the best time to do your workout is before you have eatin anything at all. the continue with breakfast and the rest of of your meals however u see fit. every 2-3hours..and eat your last meal at least 3 hours before u go to bed. i had really good results on the abs diet plan. its easy to follow and it works i seen results in a week. so good luck.

Fabe’s All Natural Bakery’s New Gluten Free Chocolate Fudge Cupcake to Be Included on Chuck E. Cheese’s New Gluten Free Menu Options in Minneapolis Market Test

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) May 09, 2012

Fabe’s All Natural Bakery’s wins Chuck E Cheese’s (CEC) gluten free taste test with their new gluten free Chocolate Fudge cupcake. Pitted against some of the industries top gluten free dessert competition, Fabe’s Chocolate Fudge cupcake, which is made with real ingredients and naturally sweetened with fruits, veggies and grains, won hands down for their delicious gourmet taste that even kids love.

If you have kids, or grandkids, you’ve most likely been to a Chuck E Cheese’s – Where A Kid Can Be A Kid®. This May the company (CEC) and its franchises, will launch a market test of two gluten free menu options at six CEC locations in Minneapolis to meet the needs of families on restricted diets – a gluten free pizza (Conte’s Pasta) and Fabe’s gluten free Chocolate Fudge Cupcake – both certified gluten free and fresh frozen to preserve nutritional value, which will be served (defrosted/baked) to families individually pre-packaged and sealed to prevent contamination. (Watch CEC video now – http://youtu.be/9eiR70X2qFU)

For families with special dietary needs, dining out, or even finding healthy gluten free desserts – that actually taste good – is not so easy. Fortunately, Fabe’s has addressed this important issue and made things a little easier. Last Spring the company launched three new flavors of individually wrapped single serve gluten free (2.25 oz) cookies. Parents were thrilled, and have described the cookies as perfect for taking to birthday parties, holiday gatherings, sleepovers, play dates and especially helpful when traveling. Mother and Award-Winning documentary filmmaker (Autism The Musical), Kristen Stills says, “The new gluten free Chocolate Fudge cupcake will be a great addition to the company’s already extensive line of delicious desserts.”

Fabe’s co-founder Steve Fabos states, “Winning this taste test with CEC is simply confirmation that baking products made with real ingredients – Sweetened by Nature™, does not mean compromised taste. In fact, when you have the right recipe – it’s testimony that – all natural … truly is best.”

About Fabe’s All Natural Bakery:

Fabe’s has been a leader in baking naturally sweetened, healthy desserts since 1989. They offer one of the largest selections of gourmet cookies, pies, cakes and snacks for everyone’s personal food choices (gluten free, vegan, whole grain, wheat free, organic), and to the natural foods marketplace.

Put cottage cheese on your salad instead of dressing. It helps you feel full and gives you calcium your body needs. Eat whole grains and veggies with the other stuff.

Knee – you could do squats, lunges all though these target your thigh muscles the stress on your knees would more than likely allow for strengthening also do alot of running to retrain your knee.

Abs – everything on the ground, bicycle, cherry picker, superman, sweeps.

pecs – pushups, bench press, pec deck and dumbell flye.

all those you can google and they will give you specific instruction.
