fitbook Keeps Expectant Moms and Kids on a Healthy Track

By Lauren Rollheiser

fitbook by fitlosophy is a personalized way to track weight loss, nutrition and fitness goals. Writing down goals and tracking progress is an often overlooked but important step, especially when it comes to weight loss. According to fitlosophy, research has shown that the habit of writing down goals makes one 75% more likely to succeed. In weight loss studies, participants who tracked their progress lost twice as much weight as the group that didn’t use a tracking system.

fitbook is a journal designed to help users get healthy and slim down. Two recent additions to fitlosophy’s line are the fitbook mama2b and fitbook junior, focusing on healthy pregnancies and kids.

fitbook mama2b is a 40-week journal that takes a woman through her entire pregnancy. Goals are set for each trimester, with smaller goals set for each week. Important nutrition information about foods with the highest nutritional value is provided throughout, encouraging maximum healthy living for expectant moms. Specific pregnancy-safe exercises are suggested throughout.

Other tools, such as a weight gain calculator, are available that provide information on a personalized healthy weight gain for the individual. Weekly updates provide information on the size and development of the baby at each stage. The fitbook mama2b preserves memories too with areas to journal about the pregnancy and birth.

fitbook junior is intended for kids as young as five and encourages them to lead a healthy, active lifestyle. This version of the fitbook includes a 3-step goal setting process to teach children the skill of goal setting. Goals are set for four different categories: get movin’; food; home; and school. A reward system is included; earn a blue star for tracking progress every day and a red star for reaching weekly goals. At the end of each week, points are totaled and rewards earned.

fitbook junior includes a guide for teachers, coaches, and parents. This is a useful tool to empower kids to make healthy choices and to learn good habits. Each version of the fitbook can be adapted for individual or group use. The tool provides a way to help teams and groups stick together to achieve goals.
