small change, Big Results - Paperback

by Myrtle D. Russell (Author), Cameron T. Russell (Author)

Initiated in 2005, "small change: Big Results" is an extension of "small change, a 28 Day Guide to Eating, Thinking, and Feeling Healthier" written and developed with my mother, Myrtle D. Russell. Within months of the initial release we realized that a disproportionate number of the students were neither at their ideal weight nor in satisfactory physical condition. Seeking big results in the fight against childhood obesity, this venture ultimately spawned from the sheer desire to help others be healthy and live prosperous lives. It quickly became our mission to help parents and their children find healthy alternatives to the disturbing immobilization trend going on in way too many American households. Use this book as a tool to begin to make some small changes in your child's life by infusing sports and physical activity. Use it for the sole purpose of getting your child on the go and having fun. You will need time, a positive attitude, and a simple journal to note the positive, life-altering recommendations discussed throughout this book.
