TAKE CARE OF YOU AND YOURS' WEIGHT

Naturally Healthy

Like us, did Santa leave you with some unwanted kilos? Let’s blame the white-bearded one and get to this weighty issue. Less sledding, more shedding is in order!
Lee Holmes, Supercharged Food founder and clinical nutritionist says: “In my clinic work and in hearing from the Supercharged community, our body weight is one aspect of health that can be the hardest to manage at this time of the year. Many people gain a few pounds over the Christmas New Year period and, why not?! It’s OK. It’s good to give into temptation once in a while.”

More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.

Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hannah Westbury likes to chat with customers at her checkout - so much so that she’s learning sign language for one regular.

Paeroa-based Westbury has worked in Woolworths for the past seven years and moved to checkout a year ago.
