MARIE PROMISED HER
STUDENTS....NO SODAS...
two years and more now!
Two years ago the coach at Overton Elementary School, where Marie
Dilworth taught then, challenged students to give up soda and drink
water instead. She decided to challenge her own class by promising to
give up soda if they would. Marie's been soda-free since then with no
regrets! She just drinks water..."I've heard diet drinks also make you
fat and I just don't think they're good for you."
Easy to say, "No thanks!"

"I really prefer water!"

DIET SODAS? WORSE!
"Researchers in San Antonio believe diet sodas may be as bad or worse than sugared soda. Over 9 years, they found that the waistlines of folks who drank 2 or more diet sodas per day grew 5 times faster than those who drank no diet sodas." ScienceDaily 6-28-2011 |

DOCTOR’S RECOMMENDATION
No soda during the school week!
DOCTOR’S RECOMMENDATION
No soda during the school week!
"I am Dr. Stephen Pont, Medical Director for the Austin Independent School District and Dell Children's Medical Center."
“Obesity is an epidemic in the U.S. and African Americans in
Travis County are represented in this unfortunate trend.
There are lots of things we need to do to fight obesity, and one
of the most simple and important is to stop giving ourselves and
children so much sugar sweetened soda and other drinks with
too much sugar! I'm urging families here to make a promise to
no sodas during the school week. This will help your children's
learning and you whole family’s health.”
