Sita Tofilau Pereira is our personality of the week. Sita a registered nurse has recently caught the attention of the top New Zealand media. She has appeared as main feature on the NZ Women's weekly and the a number of radio and television programmes because of her success in the diet and healthy living counseling.She is credited to be the first to launch a child obesity programme in which she involves the whole family in finding solutions to child obesity. This is no surprise as Sita is a NZ registered nurse who had to give up her profession to concentrate first on raising her family. Her husband, Masuisui Junior Pereira, a well known marketing and promoter has been very supportive of the Sita's move to set herself up in New Zealand in her new career. Sita's success has been nothing short of dramatic because of her hard work and commitment to succeed. She has been in NZ for less than 5 years. Therefore Sita has become a role model for new young Samoan families who are planning to migrate overseas
