Resolving to lose 90 pounds this year, Weaver’s feature will additionally include 90 in ’09 support team including author Scott Reall, founder of the YMCA’s Journey to Freedom program, and Dr. Asa Andrew, also known as “America’s Health Coach.”

Since its launch two months ago, nearly 10,000 individuals from across the nation have joined the 90 in ’09 campaign to start a healthier lifestyle. In addition to joining the health initiative at www.90in09.com tracking their successes, participants further have access to healthy food recipes, exercise techniques and more wellness information.

Obesity is the second leading cause of preventable death after smoking, according to a CDC report, and is associated with type 2 diabetes, hyperlipidemia, coronary artery disease, arthritis, gallstones and certain types of cancer. Andrew further explains that 80% of health challenges people face today are diet and lifestyle related. Other statistics show that 65% of Americans are overweight while 35% are clinically obese.
