Picked up a few pounds over the holidays? A new Lifesteps 16-week Weight Management Program is forming in January at Fit for Life.

ACT NOW! The next class begins with individual interviews the week of Jan. 12^th.

Participants have the choice of Wed. noon class or Thurs. 5:15 p.m. class.  Step 1 begins on either Wed. the 21st or Thurs. the 22nd of Jan. depending on which day of the week you choose.  We meet for 1 hour each week thereafter for a total of 16 weeks in a group setting (about 8-12 people per class).

Group classes are small to allow you to feel comfortable sharing information and ideas. If you are committed to losing weight and keeping it off.

Most weight loss programs restrict you from eating certain foods, encourage harmful practices to promote quick weight loss or offer over-the-counter weight loss drugs. You must recognize that these types of programs are “temporary fixes” to a lifelong problem and unless you increase your awareness of what you eat, how much you eat, how you eat and why you eat, there’s a high risk of gaining your weight back.

Lifesteps recognizes that weight loss is hard work. It contains strategies for making lifestyle changes in both eating and exercise habits. Our leaders work in partnership with you to help you develop an individual plan that meets your needs. There is no special diet – you eat the foods you enjoy, the same foods your family eats and there are no marathon exercises – you choose activities that fit your schedule and your fitness level. Information is presented sequentially and each step builds on the previous one.

You will develop healthy eating and exercise habits that will help you lose weight and keep it off for the rest of your life!
