Reader asks for weight diet guidelines with the current emphasis on physical fitness and with the problem of the overweight Soldier there seems to be several things that make no sense. First of All if a Soldier has a problem controlling his weight the army Rule is lose it we Don t care ii is followed by a trip to the Hospital or clinic where a dietician hands you a diet and says follow i feel that this is not Good enough. Many limes the Soldier win starve in order to lose a few pounds which is not healthy. There needs to be some guidelines or at least guidance to help the Soldier. Losing weight and learning the ways to keep it off the healthy Way should be the most important Factor. What Good Are thin soldiers if they Are so nutritionally ill Ihal they can t maintain their functions and duties something that really confuses me is that if a Soldier has a drug or alcohol problem there is a facility near Stuttgart where he can go for counselling and rehabilitation. Why is there nol a place for the overweight Soldier it seems to me Thol n person who is a few pounds overweight is less of a threat than a Soldier who is dependent on drugs and or alcohol. It would seem to me that with the emphasis the military is putting on weight control it would Start a facility that could help these people with guidance by a nutritionist not just a person who hands them a diet and says follow this. Not every person is the same. Therefore i Don t feel that there can be a Standard diet for each person. Why is there not such a place and what plans docs the military have to Start such n facility if there is such a facility already Why docs no one know of it name tilt held Augsburg Germany editor s note capt.
