Do you want to turn the tide against the two pound per year incremental weight gain of most adults in America? Do you want to buck the trend of growing obesity rates and diminishing health in our country? Then join America on the Move (AOM) this month with two simple changes:

1. Move More - take 2,000 additional steps each day
2. Eat Less - eat 100 fewer calories each day

AOM partnered with the Democratic National Convention (DNC) for a Lean~n~Green challenge, registering participants and encouraging walking. Their motto - Walking is the Easiest Green! is one that is easy for all of us to follow.
