M3C News Page 2 A Message From the Manager If you have not noticed, we have new signs, one outside of our building and one on the West side of the building as you drive in from Southern Blvd. Manzano Mesa was built and dedicated in September of 2002, we did have a sign on the side of the street on Southern, but for a Center of this magnitude, we always felt that it was not sufficient. I worked here from 2006-2010 and returned in 2014, and I cannot tell you how many times people would mistakenly identify us as the elementary school or thought we were a warehouse. We finally have an identity and we could not be more pleased! We want to thank Councilor Don Harris, who without his tremendous generosity, our new signs, or the new blinds we have in our Social hall would not be possible.

Richard J. Berry, Mayor Department of Senior Affairs Select low-fat and no-sugar-added foods to make good “nutrient buys” with your budget. Depending on the foods you choose and the amount of physical activity you do each day, you may have calories left over for “extras” that can be used on treats like solid fats, added sugars and alcohol. These are discretionary calories, or calories to be spent at your discretion. A person’s discretionary calorie budget varies depending on how physically active they are and how many calories they need to consume to meet their daily nutrient requirements. Use this interactive tool to calculate your personal daily calorie needs. The American Heart Association recommends that no more than half of a person’s daily discretionary calorie allowance be spent on added sugars. Common sources of discretionary calories (in addition to added sugars) are fats, oils and alcohol. Fats are the most concentrated source of calories. Discretionary calories can be used to: •Eat additional foods from a food group above your daily recommendation. •Select a higher-calorie form of a food that’s higher in fat or contains added sugars (whole milk vs. skim or sweetened vs. unsweetened cereal). •Add fats or sweeteners to the leanest versions of foods (for example, sauce, dressing and butter/margarine). •Eat or drink items that are mostly fat, sugar or alcohol such as candy, cake, beer, wine or regular soda.
