Description
When you need to look your very best now...
Learning objectives & benefits:
This program teaches individuals how to choose lower calorie foods in the grocery store. It can be used in a classroom, for individual counseling or for staff education. Take them on a tour of the grocery store and explain what they should consider in every aisle. Tour tips, product example and comparison idea and more help illustrate your point so they see and learn.
Use this program before a tour or as a tour. The PowerPoint program is a virtual store tour - you can see pictures of two carts - one has a lot more calories and costs a lot more money - yet it has fewer meals. Filling up with healthy foods is the answer. There are probably two aisles they need to shop more (grains and beans and produce) and two they need to shop less (crackers and cookies and chips).
Here are the lesson plans given for the show and the leader guide with handouts:
Grains, breads, pasta, cereals , packaged foods - which are the best choices for weight loss?
Produce and canned foods - build many meals and meal ideas here
Dairy foods - wow the choices are plenty - how do you sort through them quickly? What should you beware of?
Condiments, sugar substitutes and prepared items - some can be great bargains for flavor without calories
Fats, margarines and oils - use caution and savvy packaging to use less
Beverages - tasty ideas without calories and some show stoppers that pack a lot of calories
Meat, seafood, deli counters - navigate carefully to get the best value for your calorie
Baked goods, desserts - by figuring the total calorie per cake you can get a better picture of what these foods do
Frozen foods - find the ones that save time without breaking the calorie budget
Tips for shopping in each section of the store are given so consumers can make better choices for managing their diet. Use these for supermarket tours or classroom use. More handouts on healthy lifestyle, body mass index, vending machine purchases and a healthy shopping list are provided. And a Take Me Shopping copy-ready, double-sided brochure is included, too.
