The Village at Marymount Seeking Volunteers
The Village at Marymount, one of Northeast Ohio’s premier continued living communities, is seeking vol-unteers to assist with activities at its three facilities – Marymount Place, Villa St. Joseph, and Clare Hall. Volunteers are needed to transport residents to and from their daily activities, deliver newspapers and mail, visit with residents, and to help with such activi-ties as Bingo and the Knitting Circle. “Our volunteers do so much to enhance the lives of our residents,” said Donna Galbraith, Director of Life Enrichment at The Village at Marymount. “They pro-vide an invaluable service that proves to be fulfilling for them as well.” Interested volunteers can schedule an appointment to complete an application at The Village at Marymount, 5200 Marymount Village Drive in Garfield Heights. For more information about becoming a volunteer, call Donna Galbraith, Director of Life Enrichment, at 216-332-1694 or [email protected].
Greetings from the Sisters of St. Joseph, TOSF
I recently attended my great nephew’s graduation from Franciscan University, Steubenville, OH. A highlight was the music played during the Baccalaureate Mass. It was classic, contemporary and Gospel. The participa-tion made the celebration an experience of pure joy. Then it dawned on me that music didn’t create the joy. It was the vehicle to convey the joy of families gathered to celebrate and thank God for the faith they share and the collective gift of blessings present among the graduates. God is so Good all the time we can find joy just about anywhere, in any circumstance, if we but look for it… I greeted a resident this morning telling him his bright shirt made him look years younger – he cracked a joke and we laughed and parted ways with joy beaming from our smiles. I hugged a lawyer today after a meeting about new legal responsibilities - we left more lighthearted knowing we cared enough to wish each other a good rest of the day. A friend called asking for a favor and said we’d been so busy we hadn’t talked or gotten togeth-er in a long while - I set out to do the favor grateful it was needed because it brought joy just to touch base! Writing these examples has me smiling as I remember so many instances of joy, simple things that can be eas-ily missed … things like the joy of oversleeping the other day rather than stressing that I had to rush to still be ready on time!! All the time, God is Good! – Remember, all the time, to count the ways!
No matter how dedicated you are to losing weight, you will hit a plateau at some point in your diet. This is when weight loss stalls and the numbers on the scale just don’t go down, even though you are still following your diet and exercise routine.
Most physicians agree that weight loss is 70 percent diet and 30 percent exercise. For any given dieter, making small changes in either realm can get the numbers back in mo-tion.
Try these tips for moving the scale in the right direction again — you may not even need all of them to start seeing a difference:
1. Ruthlessly clean up your diet. The four deadly sins of food: butter, cheese, fried food, and sugar. These things will keep you from making progress. Examine your diet to make sure you’re being honest with yourself. You lose the right to complain if you aren’t eating what you are supposed to.
2. Skip the alcohol. Alcohol not only adds calories to your diet, but it effectively slows your metabolism and reduc-es your motivation to work out and diet.
3. Go low-glycemic. If you still have refined carbs in your diet, get rid of them, especially before a workout. Eating a meal containing low-glycemic carbs about three hours before a workout results in more fat burned than a meal containing refined carbs.
4. Vary your exercise routine. If you’re coming to the gym and you’re doing the same thing every time, change your workout -- lift weights tomorrow, swim on the next day, take a group exercise class the day after.
5. Try high-intensity interval training (HIIT). Working out at different levels of intensity is thought to increase weight loss.
6. Strength train. Use weight training to build muscle. Each pound of muscle burns about 50 calories a day at rest. According to a national survey of more than 6,000 adults, about 19 percent of people who were successful with weight loss included weight training in their workouts.
7. Use a heart rate monitor. It keeps you honest about the intensity of your workout. Figure out your maximum heart rate by subtracting your age from 220. Target your workouts so your heart rate stays between 65 and 85 percent of your maximum most of the time.
8. Drink water. If you are not drinking enough water during the day, your body may be retaining water, adding to the numbers on the scale. It is recommended that you con-sume about half your body weight in ounces of water every day if you work out a lot (more if you’re outside in the heat). A 145-pound woman should drink about 73 ounces of water.
9. Exercise for more than 30 minutes every day. People who exercise at least 30 minutes every day are more successful with weight loss. Try to get in at least this much exercise — and increasing the time you spend working out every day will increase the caloric burn.
10. Get the people in your life on board. Most people don’t sabotage your diet on purpose, but their food-related acts of love could be undermining your weight loss.
Plateaus are a diet downer, but by making these slight ad-justments to your plan, you should get that scale back on track in no time.

Mother’s Day/ Ladies Tea
Mission Day Mass
By Liz Pencak Director of Marketing & Clinical Liaison As you travel the back roads from your house to your parents – for your weekly luncheon with mom – you think about the tasks to be completed that day. A trip to the grocery store. A quick stop at the bank. Shuttling kids to and from sporting activities. Your mind continues to compose the list, as you pull over for an ambulance with lights and sirens blaring. As you round the corner of your parent’s street, you see your father and several neighbors in the driveway ... your heart skips a beat. Your father proceeds to tell you ... mom had been walking down to the mailbox, twisted her ankle, fell and hit her head. Apparently, she laid in the driveway for about 20 minutes before dad went looking for her. The paramedics insisted on taking mom to the hospital for a quick review and assessment. And so, the ride begins. The next three hours are spent providing insurance information, reviewing past medical history, answering questions about “the incident,” undergoing multiple tests and waiting to see the emergency department physician. Mom appears to be fine and so your mind starts to read-just the list from this morning. Grocery store can wait until tomorrow. Hit the ATM on the way home. My sister may be able to shuttle the kids around. And then, the doctor arrives. Test results show abnormalities and the physician is recommending mom be admitted for observa-tion and a few additional tests. Many folks will experience similar situations like the one described above. Will they be prepared? Will they know their options? Most of us desperately try to avoid a trip to the hospital, so we avoid having conversations about these types of events. If we don’t speak of them – per-haps they won’t happen to us – resulting in most people being unprepared to traverse this very personal and emotional rollercoaster ride. According to the U.S. Department for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly 1 in 5 Americans will visit an emergency department at least once a year. With those amazing statistics it is obvious, we must get out of our comfort zone, do the research and be prepared. Doing the due diligence prior to the need will allow objectivity. Don’t allow yourself to be thrust into an emotionally charged situation hav-ing to make very difficult/important decisions. Certainly, take the time to know – and understand – your options. If home healthcare has been recommended, understand that there are many providers offering both medical and non-medical/companion care options. If skilled nursing/short-term rehabilitation is recommended, then have you visited any campuses? Do you understand the services that will be provid-ed? What benefits will be covered by insurance? These are decisions most of us will face at some point in our lives. Your medical professionals will certainly provide options and recommen-dations – but the decisions are yours to make. Be prepared! Liz Pencak will be part of a panel discussion addressing the topic “A Trip To The Hospital: Now What?” as part of The Village at Mary-mount’s popular Speaker Series program. The event, which includes a light dinner and refreshments, will be held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, June 20. To attend this free event, please call Liz at 216-332-1396.
A Trip to the Hospital – Now What? Are you prepared to ride-the-rails of the emotional rollercoaster?
