Adult Weight Management Series

ABOUT THE CLASS

Learn about the connection between weight and health and how to make long-term lifestyle changes.

 

Series 1 – (3 workshops)

Participants in the Series 1 workshops will learn about planning for physical activity. There is discussion about where our calories come from, what influences calorie needs, and choices for healthy food and drink. Learn how using a journal is a helpful tool for change, explore your health habits and motivations for change, and examine how our surroundings can influence our choices.

 

Series 2 – (3 workshops)

Series 2 of the Adult Weight Management program helps you develop a healthier relationship with food and physical activity. It is important to recognize how, what, when, how much, and why we eat. The 4 Ps of meal planning will help set you up for success. Additionally, we help you identify the things around us that can influence our food choices. This Enables us to recognize and manage the emotions and triggers that can lead to unhelpful thoughts and feelings, as well as introducing the concept of “mindful” eating.

 

Series 3 – (2 workshops)

Our Adult Weight Management Series 3 classes will teach participants to challenge “all or nothing” thinking. We will look at where calories come from and offer tips for navigating the challenges buffets, restaurants, and parties. During the course, participants will also explore the impacts of sleep, medications, cravings, and effective communication on managing weight. Participants have the chance to share personal barriers and problem solve situations.
