20/20 KidsSecond‘Chance’Chance JohnstonAfter completing the program I have been very, very energetic and my eating habitsand exercise have changed a lot. I even went down in my clothes more than twosizes. My friends treat me different – they treat me nicer because I can play with themmore. Now I treat my hair better and it is much smoother. The program is really funand helpful. The whole group is looking out for you and finding ways to help.Comments from Margaret (Chance’s Mom):Because of the 20/20 commitment to Chance, and Chance’s commitment to 20/20,Chance has become a role model to people close to her. For example, her teacherstarted walking four miles a day and eating better, telling us “if Chance can do it,so can I!” Her incredible dedication and positive spirit are a continual source ofamazement and inspiration.Last year when she was six, Chance’s world was full of “I can’t.” Chance couldn’t dothe monkey bars. She was the slowest kid in class. She dropped out of jump ropeand basketball classes because she couldn’t keep up. Kids were calling her fat. Herdad and I watched as her self-esteem chipped away. The common comment was“She’s so young, she’ll grow out of it.” But what if she doesn’t? Besides, why shouldher self-esteem suffer such blows?Chance’shealthytips:Meal track what youare eating so you canlook back and seeif you made healthychoices or not.Throw away all ofyour candy, sodas,and junk food.Exercise more. Youwill feel a lot better.Try your bestand have fun!Total Weight Lost: 15 lbs.Body Fat Lost: 11%At six, sadly, it was not Chance’s fault that she was overweight, it was mine and herdad’s. I was surprised by how little we knew about nutrition and behaviors. Thankfully,the program has changed all of our lives in so many positive ways that, although attimes we miss the junk food, we have no plans to go back.The combination of nutrition, behavior changes, and exercise that the program bringsis amazing! However, it is not just the program. It works because of the dedication andlove that the staff, Andri, Marcus, Milena, Sarah, and Crystal, provide to the kids. Thecare to ensure all the kids are supportive of each other also creates a very positiveatmosphere where all kids feel like they can be successful. Even though Chance hasmet the goals the 20/20 team has set out for her, Chance loves the program so muchthat she continues to participate.Introducing 20/20 KIDSCommitted to Kids (CTK) has recently been changed to 20/20 Kids. CTK originated as a program from Louisiana State UniversitySchool of Medicine and was adopted by <strong>PRO</strong> <strong>Sports</strong> <strong>Club</strong>. After five years of working with many children and families, theprogram has evolved by utilizing the expertise of our own staff and many of the very successful weight management methods that20/20 Lifestyles utilizes with adults. Therefore, we’re please to present the program as 20/20 KIDS. The name has changed, theprogram is improved, but our goal is the same - to educate children and their families in the lifelong healthy behaviors and skillsthey need to prevent mild overweight from becoming obesity and to maintain healthy weight once achieved.Now Accepting Applications for September 25 program start.
