How do you get unmotivated people to eat nutritiously? I think you said these were seniors. They were doing what they want. They want to have soda or Starbucks mocha crapacino or whatever for breakfast and eat candy. Thats the problem. Goes back to one's internal motivation.

Guess we could draft 'em into the military where they'd be provided only nutritious food plus lots of exercise. Having to do difficult things (while someone shouts in their ear to make sure they do it) and succeed might (stress might) even give them a sense of accomplishment and confidence which they might carry away with them when they leave.

Just kidding there.
