  • The program emphasizes LIFESTYLE change to promote weight loss by reducing calorie-intake and increasing physical activity.

  • Additionally, the program will focus on developing cognitive skills to help you THINK DIFFERENTLY about diet, physical activity, and weight loss and STAY MOTIVATED.

  • Each session will include an educational component, followed by group discussion and a brief walk.  

  • Sessions will be conducted in small groups on Tuesday evenings from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.


The total cost for the 10-week program is $100.00, which includes 10 two-hour sessions, a notebook, pedometer, and weight management manual that will be used throughout the program.
