Problem Definition continued…...

Eating carbohydrate laden meals leads to weight gain especially when regular cardiovascular exercise is not incorporated into my routines.

Eating large carbohydrate meals leads to fatigue after eating.

What's So Junky About 'Junk' Food?

Many snacks, such as potato chips, fast-food cheeseburgers, and fries, have high levels of fat, sugar or salt.

Most of these are made using saturated fat, which comes from animal products, hydrogenated vegetable oils and tropical oils -- coconut and palm -- providing smaller amounts. Only animal fat provides cholesterol.

Page 5: Good Bye Processed Carbs, Hello Steady Exercise

Why eating Large quantities of processed carbohydrates is unhealthy

Processed carbohydrates (sugars, most breads and pastas, snack foods, etc.) when consumed quickly elevate insulin levels and lead to the conversion of carbohydrates into fat.

Increasing incidence of diabetes may be related to the increased consumption of processed carbohydrates.

Problem Identification “Healthy food” not easily available

because it is not in the house or “good” foods are noteasily available

Cravings for junk food Studying, errands or children

sometimes a barrier to exercising Sometimes feel lazy and just won’t

exercise

Page 9: Good Bye Processed Carbs, Hello Steady Exercise

Changes to the Environment / System to create change When shopping, purchase large quantities of

“healthy foods.” Prepare large quantities of “healthy food” so it

will always be available Minimize the amount of junk food in house to a

level where others in household will just be satisfied

Involve exercise in the faimily’s activities

Page 10: Good Bye Processed Carbs, Hello Steady Exercise

Personal Changes

Exercise when a study break is needed

Set up racquetball dates- enjoyable experiences that I will not want to miss

Walk children to school instead of driving them

Page 11: Good Bye Processed Carbs, Hello Steady Exercise

Changes adopted

All of the suggested changes were initiated. Executed over a period of 44 days starting from

September 5th to October 18th, 2002. Two variables were measured; “Days with

exercise” and “Days of eating Healthy.” The data was analyzed using “Time in between

charts”.

Results

My Weight quickly dropped from 193 pounds to my 183 pounds where I hit a plateau. This may be due to my workouts getting shorter in duration than when I started taking measurements. Although I stopped daily monitoring of exercise and eating habits, my weight dropped to 178 by November 25.

Analysis The one failure above the UCL on the “Eating

Well” control chart is statistically significant suggesting a return to poor habits.

The rest of the failures below the “Upper Control Limit” are statistically insignificant and only suggest relapses.

Page 22: Good Bye Processed Carbs, Hello Steady Exercise

Analysis Though initially there was not much of a

success or break in the habit, in course of time the habit changed.

This project of personal improvement is a success both physically and statistically.

Page 23: Good Bye Processed Carbs, Hello Steady Exercise

Future Course Of Action Maintain current eating program When target weight is obtained, begin to add

more carbohydrates to diet to maintain weight Maintain exercise routines, especially when

other parts of life change Find new ways to exercise with children- bike

riding, swimming, ping-pong.
