Note to Presenters

Important: If you plan to use these slides to present to others

• This power point presentation is designed to be used with school and community audiences, e.g., faith communities, civic organizations, AAUW, Habitat for Humanity, Food Pantries as we collaborate with others to help our family and community members eat healthy food patterns—and reduce the high overweight and obesity rates in our country. At the same time, we also want our community members to support the FCS education programs which can also help address this issue.

• Use/adapt these slides for your own presentations, i.e., add your name, position, etc. on title slide and share your connection to FCS, i.e., FCS teacher, teacher educator, member of AAFCS, etc.

• Verbally give credit to Alice Henneman, MS, RD, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension for developing the slides based on the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2010, that have been peer reviewed in 2011. Essentially, she is your co-presenter and a FCS Extension professional.

• Include the three FCS branding slides (slides 4-6) and use these slides to introduce yourself and FCS education and ways FCS can help with the obesity issue in your community and state and distribute the Empowering FCS Education Brief.

You Can Live as if There’s No Tomorrow.

But, tomorrow will probably come! How healthy will you be?

long, I’d have taken better care of

myself.” ~Leon Eldred

2. Balancing Calories

Calorie balance over time is key!

Maintain calorie balance over

time to achieve and sustain a

healthy weight

3. The BEST Way to Assess if You’re Eating the Right Number of Calories is:

A. Check calorie tables in DGA2010; select level based on age, gender, height, weight, & physical activity

B. Monitor body weight; adjust calorie intake & participation in physical activity based on weight changes over time

Eat Smaller Portions

The bigger the portion, the more people tend to eat.

Reducing Sugar

Reduce Intake of Sugar-Sweetened Beverages by:

• Drinking fewer sugar-sweetened beverages

• Consuming smaller portions

“Added” sugars are sugars and syrups added to foods or beverages during preparation or processing

1 teaspoon sugar = about 4g of added and/or naturally occurring sugar

Other sugars occur “naturally” in foods like milk, fruit, and some vegetables – they aren’t the “added sugars” that are the concern of the DGA2010

Some Final Comments

• “Eating patterns” over time

• Calories count

• Food is to be enjoyed!

“Eating Pattern” vs. “Total Diet”

•DGA2010 uses “eating pattern” to refer to combination

of foods and beverages constituting an individual’s

complete dietary intake over time

•“Diet” may be misconstrued as an eating pattern

intended for weight loss

Balance Calories to Maintain Weight

•It is possible to fit a variety of foods, in

moderation, into a healthy eating pattern if

nutrient needs have been met without exceeding

calorie limits

•Regular physical activity helps maintain calorie

balance

Food is to Be Enjoyed!
