Group Sessions
I have formulated an 8 Week Group Weight Loss Program for those who enjoy working in a group. Weight loss is much easier when shared with others. You learn together, support each other, new ideas are created and you learn to change your habits through different approaches.
The 8 Week Group Weight Loss Program is designed to help you learn simple, practical steps to manage long-term health and weight loss.
Did you know?
Psychological research has found that a group approach helps with weight loss. It is easier to stick to a plan when you have support and can share tips on diet and exercise.
In one study researchers looked at the effectiveness of a group program versus a self-help program (In the self-help program the clients had two brief sessions with a dietician plus printed material). The researchers found that the group members lost more than three times the amount of weight as the self-help group during the first year.
The 8 Week Group Weight Loss Program encompasses a small group (up to 10 persons), continues for 8 weeks, and is led by one of our dieticians. This allows for individualised attention as well as support from the other members of the group.
What will you learn in the 8 Week Group Weight Loss Program?
- To set realistic, genuine (not superficial) goals
- To restructure your daily eating plan to become healthier and move towards your goals
- To become more conscious and mindful of your eating
- To change your unhealthy habits into healthy ones
- We’ll also be educating you on subjects such as label reading and eating out
- Share delicious food and meal ideas that your group participants enjoy
I run four 8 Week Group Weight Loss Programs per year (during the school terms).
