Janie Cole gives a tour of a local grocery store.<\/p><\/div>\n

OXFORD, Miss. \u2013 Janie Cole, registered dietitian and adjunct professor in the\u00a0Department of Nutrition and Hospitality Management\u00a0<\/a>at the University of Mississippi, leads a group of six through an Oxford grocery store.<\/p>\n

She hands out a\u00a0“Grocery Store Shopping“<\/em>\u00a0<\/em>guide that provides tips such as “Plan ahead and make a list” and “Don’t be on your phone while shopping. It gets you off task.” Cole tells the group to examine and compare nutrition facts for deli meats, bread, cereal and bacon.<\/p>\n

In one of the aisles, Cole says, “Pay attention to calories, sodium content and saturated fat.”<\/p>\n

The grocery store tour is a part of the weight management program organized by UM’s Nutrition Clinic<\/a>, which is devoted to helping the community with weight loss, eating disorders and other nutrition issues. The program offers weekly group meetings, food record analysis, cooking demonstrations, tastings and one-on-one consults.<\/p>\n

“Walking through the store and comparing labels helps the participants make healthy choices,” Cole said, regarding the grocery store tour. “Oftentimes, they are pleasantly surprised by what is considered a healthy choice.”<\/p>\n

The program started in 2011 after the clinic got requests to begin a weight management class. But people take the class for reasons beside weight loss, Cole said.<\/p>\n

“They want to eat better, improve their overall health and basically have a healthier lifestyle in general,” she said.<\/p>\n

And the classes are improving lifestyles. The program has consistent success in lowering weight, blood sugar and cholesterol, and improving energy levels.<\/p>\n

“This class is different from others available in that we teach you how to eat healthy without eliminating your favorite foods,” Cole said. “It’s so simple, but it works.”<\/p>\n

The weight management classes begin Jan. 21 at Lenoir Hall and are open to the public. The fee for the 12-week course is $150. Participants can register for the classes by calling the UM Nutrition Clinic at 662-915-8662 or by emailing umnutritionclinic@olemiss.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
