Losing weight and living a healthier lifestyle is probably the most common New Year’s resolution.
Unfortunately it’s also often the hardest one to keep.
The Yazoo County Health Network plans to help 30 people meet their goals through a 12-week program designed to change unhealthy habits.
Yazoo’s Biggest Loser will be a competition in which two teams of 15 will spend 12 weeks focusing on exercise and nutrition. The program is sponsored by the Yazoo County Health Network and The Rock. -------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------
Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
