The Weight Loss Industry: The World is Your Market The National Institute of Health reports that more than 65% of Americans are overweight and half of those people are obese. Weight-related problems are costing dollars in terms of productivity at work, increased healthcare costs and missed opportunities. It is no surprise that the current $33 billion weight loss industry is projected to grow to $40 billion over the next few years.

You Can Help Make the World a Healthier Place: The general population is getting fatter and is always looking for new ways to combat their weight problems. As awareness grows that healthy lifestyle change is the only proven long-term weight management solution, programs like the Lighten Up! Weight Loss Program, which teach, motivate, and reinforce behavior change are reaping the benefits.

As a Lighten Up! Weight Loss Program franchisee, you will contribute to the solution! You will also feel confident that you are part of an organization with such optimal potential for growth! Lighten Up! Sells Itself Lighten Up! advocates easy, consistent weight loss that is the result of a healthier lifestyle rather than dieting. If you've tried losing weight by using one of the hundreds of weight loss methods available, you know how difficult and frustrating dieting can be. You are not alone-most people who sincerely and even desperately want to lose weight have never been successful with any dieting program. The reason is simple: Dieting Doesn't Work!

Make the World a Healthier Place It is very important to understand at the outset that Lighten Up! is not a diet.

• It is a systematic plan to help you change your eating habits for the rest of your life.
• It will show you how the biggest "payoff" is to use food solely for its intended purpose - to nourish and fuel your body.
• You will also learn how to get your many needs met in appropriate ways so you won't ever use food to satisfy your needs.
