Diet
Dietetics is one of the three specialist elements that you will learn about during the programme. We understand how difficult it can be to manage weight and how it is different for everyone. We will support you to make changes around your diet to help you work around the things that make weight loss hard for you.
We will cover many subjects about food and drink throughout the six month programme. You will pick up some new skills to help you with managing your weight and we will share useful tools that you will be able to use to keep yourself on track.
In community group programmes you will have the option to be weighed with us in a private room every two weeks. Your weight remains confidential and you will receive personal support from us throughout the programme.
