New Hope for Childhood Obesity: Love More, Feed Less, Published by The Muffin Lady, Inc.

Evergreen, CO, December 23, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Randi Lee Levin announced today the release of her newest book, Love More, Feed Less, A Tasty Path Toward Avoiding Obesity, published by The Muffin Lady, Inc. Randi’s straight-from-the-heart and timely new guide shows parents how to avoid overfeeding their children the salty, sugary and fatty foods that lead to obesity. Instead, the author presents a smorgasbord of healthy, tasty dishes that can be prepared easily and innovatively; while offering ways to adjust serving sizes to help induce and maintain weight loss; and prevent the addiction to overeating so common to today’s youth.

Love More, Feed Less is not a diet book. Nor is it a cookbook for raising thin, fit kids. Instead, Randi helps her readers understand the overweight issue and its implications for a child’s physical, mental and emotional health – and then helps them institute moderate changes in their family’s eating and activity habits with ease and affordable flavor. Parents can then start to ensure their children’s health through dedication, a smidgen of effort and Randi’s own homegrown recipes of flavorful love.

By loving their children a little bit more, Randi says, parents can begin feeding them less of the prepackaged, prepared, sugar infused or fast foods that are so detrimental to their well being.

Her “Blueberry Gobble” and “Zip-Itty-Doo-Dah Bread,” for instance, are healthy alternatives for the after school snack, and her “Homespun Potato Chips” and homemade chocolate bars are easy and inexpensive to prepare, especially when avoiding the excess grease, salt and sugar found in parallel commercial items.

Randi provides a multitude of tips, hints and recipe variations that take into account any family’s food preferences and she offers up mouth-watering, easy-to-prepare recipes like “Yammin Ham,” “O’Cucumion Salad” and “Oodles of Noodles and Zuchles” for meals that are so much more scrumptious than those that have been stuck in a bag or a can on a supermarket shelf for who knows how long. She also offers tips getting children more physically active without them being athletic.

Love More, Feed Less follows in the extremely successful footsteps of Randi’s previous two cookbooks, Sharing Mountain Recipes and Baking at High Altitude, which won a First Place EVVY award and a Best First Cookbook in the World award by Gourmand World Cookbook awards, the Oscar of the cookbook industry.

ISBN: 978-0-97450008-3-6

About the author:

Learning at a tender age to bake and cook her family’s kitchen just on the county line of Philadelphia, Randi moved to Colorado for college. She earned two advanced degrees, in Education and Psychology, and spent nearly two decades teaching and counseling children and the occasional parent. After starting to bake and sell her goods around Evergreen, Colorado, she was one day dubbed “The Muffin Lady” by a local Post Office employee, and so began her career as full time culinary professional and author. “Food is what gives us life,” Randi says, “and when you know how to prepare good, homemade food, it should be shared for the benefit of all.”
