African-American mother-daughter team launch nutritional and weight loss program -The Rennix Weigh - targeted to multicultural community

The Rennix Weigh's inspiration - Nia Rennix - is featured in the November/December issue of Looking Good Magazine for her dramatic weight loss of 115 pounds.

The Rennix Weigh, co-founded by Dr. Bobbie Rennix and her daughter nutritionist Annie 'Nia' Rennix, is helping more and more people of all backgrounds, and especially African Americans lose weight with their soul food inspired recipes, mother/sister style motivation and comprehensive plan for nutrition and weight loss in diverse communities. The Rennix Weigh (www.therennixway.com) is now hailed as one of the best kept secrets in the world of weight loss for many African Americans and some Latinos who struggle to find weight loss programs that truly include the very tasty Southern-inspired and Latino-influenced food combinations and recipes that they enjoy in their household and culture.

Dr. Bobbie Rennix, a veteran educator who hails from Alabama, says "I grew up with the soulful, tasty recipes of the South, and now with Nia, I show others how to make those recipes just as tasty but with less calories and fat. Also, I help people make better food choices without sacrificing the foods they love because I know exactly what they are used to and what foods they need to change."

Nia Rennix developed the highly effective Rennix Weigh weight loss plan in the midst of her own long-time struggle with weight. She once battled with obesity as well as a rare medical disorder that altered her insulin levels and caused extreme weight gain and darkened pigmentation of her skin. At one point, Nia was 5 feet tall, almost 300 pounds with severe discoloration of her neck and disappointed that doctors and other weight loss programs could help her lose weight. Nia began to research how food affected her body and designed a solution, the Rennix Weigh, that not only work for her but others with weight issues.

The Rennix Weigh plan includes eating controlled portions of natural foods such as whole grains, vegetables, fruit and lean protein - which includes healthy recipes from salmon cakes and baked chicken to smothered cabbage and savory collard greens and more.

After years on the Rennix Weigh, Nia has successful maintained a healthy weight for her 5 ft, petite frame. "As African Americans, while we enjoy the foods of our heritage, from fried chicken and giblet gravy to macaroni and cheese and pound cake, I encourage everyone to consider our plan to help them lose their excess weight and maintain a healthy and nutritious lifestyle. " says Nia Rennix.

The Rennix Weigh program, now offered nationally via www.therennixweigh.com, is building even more momentum and excitement with the release of its much requested Mobile Plan - "the Rennix Weigh to Go" Plan .
