We all know the importance of eating right and exercising for good health. But sometimes we stumble on the roadblocks in our path to success, and we just need a little support to help maintain a healthy lifestyle.
That’s what makes the St. Francis Eat for Life Wellness Program unique. The 10-week, comprehensive weight management program teaches skills needed to achieve and maintain a healthy body weight.
The latest program gets under way 6 p.m., Sept. 8, with each session held Mondays at the St. Francis Weight Loss Center, 700 E. Southport Rd.
“Our program is designed by a team of physicians and registered dietitians, the program focuses on making long-tem changes in your lifestyle,” said Pam Fugate, R.N., M.S.N., M.BA., manager of the St. Francis Weight Loss Center.
Each sessions offer group discussions on a variety of topics, including:
- creating a plan for balanced eating
- understanding food labels
- changing your behaviors
- maintaining motivation
- dining out
- determining portion sizes
- menu planning
- grocery shopping
- exercise
- nutrition facts and fiction.
“The key to success is having the right knowledge and tools – and knowing how to use them,” said Fugate. “Beyond the weekly class meetings, participants will have access to continued support and unlimited weigh-ins to help keep you on the road to lifelong success.”
