Diet Network Introduces a New Online Community for Dieters, Pound Watchers & Permanent Weight Loss

Oct. 13, 2009 - PRLog -- Texas, USA – In response to the overwhelming number of expensive, fee-based websites for people looking for diet and weight loss advice and information, the Diet Network has launched a new free community site, located at DietNetwork.org. The result is an informative, information packed website that caters to anyone struggling with weight gain and obesity, and delivers timely advice, research and article based information free of charge.

Obesity is at epidemic proportions in North America and the alarming statistics only seem to be skyrocketing. The CDC (Center for Disease Control) in the United States ranked obesity as the #1 health threat and estimated that the national cost exceeds $122 Billion, with more than 400,000 weight related deaths each year.

According to recent statistics, 129 million people, nearly 65% of the American adult population is overweight or obese. The Diet Network (http://www.dietnetwork.org) recognizes the need to educate those dealing with weight gain and do so in a non-judgmental and fun environment.

Dietnetwork.org works diligently to add new content daily including dieting articles, weight loss tips, diet industry research, low fat recipes, as well as reviews of fad programs and brand name plans and sales of just a select few top rated tools for permanent weight loss.

Of specific interest to dieters and those looking to shed pounds and lead a healthier life, topic categories at the Diet Network include:

-Advice for Dieting
-Eating Slowly
-Permanent Weight Loss
-Healthy Eating Habits
-Emotional Side of Weight Loss
-Low Fat Weight Loss Recipes
-Let’s Discuss Obesity
-Diet Plans
-Fitness and Exercise
-Family Fun & Pound Shedding Activities
-Weight Loss Aids and Techniques
-Diet Industry News and Research

New users to the site can read articles and submit comments without registering as a member. However, to enter the members’ only area, which includes a new interactive forum, a new site visitor must register to become a free member of the Diet Network. In the forums, members can talk freely about diet and weight loss issues in a safe and secure meeting place, connect with old and new friends, find a dieting buddy, and share before and after photos and stories. http://www.dietnetwork.org
