Healthy Eating and YOU

A series of four sessions, each lasting two hours. The aim of the program is to help you make permanent lifestyle changes; this is not a “diet” program. You will set your own healthy eating and physical activity goals, and learn how to make plans for achieving them. Some topics that will be discussed include:
Carbohydrates, protein and fats (the good and the bad)
Physical activity: What types and amounts are beneficial
Emotional eating strategies
Sensible portions and portion control strategies
Group discussions will help you learn from others experiences.
