Atlas Benefiting THON's motto is 'Love Can Lead The Way'.

The word benefiting means to get an advantage, to gain or to profit over someone else. In some cases, someones loss ends up benefiting another somehow.

The key to benefiting from diet programs is to take them seriously and remember that more must be done for a successful diet. Simply eating right is not a substitute for getting out and exercising on a regular basis. On top of that, a person must live a generally healthy lifestyle in order to really succeed at any given diet program. Also, avoiding poor programs will save a lot of wasted time and effort.
