Tips for maintaining lost weight
On January 1, many people started weight loss diets and are already experiencing success. The challenge lies in maintaining that weight loss. The National Weight Control Registry tracks people who have lost at least 30 pounds and have maintained that loss for at least a year. Here are seven common practices of people who have maintained their weight loss:
1. Eat Breakfast- It is well established that people who eat breakfast eat fewer calories later in the day.
2. Eat a low calorie diet- People on the registry tend to eat four to five smaller meals a day rather than just three. While the people on the registry have lost weight in a variety of ways, the most common was a low fat, high carbohydrate diet.

A fast knockdown certainly aided in saving nearby structures. Firefighters were on the scene for about an hour.
Butler City Council News
Once in a blue moon, the Butler City Council has a short meeting, and this week was one of those times. It was over before eight o'clock.
But that doesn't mean they aren't working behind the scenes, because the budget is sill to be finished, and that's one of the largest jobs of the year.
We have this much to report: David Brown has filed for Ward One Council position, and incumbent Tom Burg has filed for his place to continue in Ward Two.
No one has filed in wards three and four...Jim Fisher doesn't plan to retain his place in Ward Three, and no one has filed for Ward Four yet.
Voting time will be the first Tuesday in April, so hopefuls have plenty of time to put their hats in the ring.
And in closing...we spoke about "once in a blue moon" in the opening here...that saying comes from the fact that a "blue moon" is a full moon that occurs twice in a single calendar month, and that only happens about every 2-and-a-half years.
That's our report for the Butler City Council in its first meeting of 2012. We remind that you're welcome to attend any and all council meetings...seven p.m. at City Hall the first and third Tuesday of each month.

New family restaurant coming to Butler
Construction on the Butler strip is always an encouraging thing. And with that in mind, we are pleased to introduce a new restaurant coming soon as owners Neal Brownell of Kansas City and Steve Cornell of Arkansas will be developing the upscale family friendly restaurant, completely remodeled in deep rich wood, with ample lighting and a western theme.
The facility will have a bar section for cocktails and big screen televisions. All meat served will be from Briarwood Farms in Butler, complete with a meat smoker that will be located inside the building. The Bucking Bull Restaurant and Bar is under now renovation, formerly the Orange Street Saloon (across from Casey's). As you drive by, you will see the building is getting a complete facelift.
