Do you secretly dread the holidays? That season beginning with mega-bags of Halloween candy, and extending through a plentiful Thanksgiving meal, holiday banquets, and ending with New Year's appetizers and cocktails? The days when we:
- Eat too much
- Drink too much
- Overload our already-crowded schedules
- Exercise too little
- Spend high-pressure time with people we'd otherwise not even see?
This Wednesday's Group session: 5:15 - 6:15 on Wednesday, November 3rd will be devoted to examining this "festive" time of year. How can we strategize to continue and maintain our weight management?
Join our Wednesday Group this week as we plan to take control of our holidays and make them joyful and productive for us all.
We're all in this together.

Congratulations to our very first group of winners who began our program in June 2010!
We've seen remarkable weight loss achievements. We've embraced physical activity - with nearly everyone tackling exercise with a new zeal.
I've learned that you can go through a personal crisis without scones, muffins, or those giant hospital cookies! Who knew?
Our group participants have been very conscious: working hard at understanding their own patterns of weight challenge. Most of us have gained and lost before.
We raise the slightly scary and ever-present question: why should we be able to maintain our weight loss more effectively now?
In my opinion, it's because we truly are different: with new tools and a better understanding of our own underlying truths.
Plus, we have the opportunity to continue to meet as a group for that exceptional group support.
So, congratulations to our Winners. Keep it up.
We're all in this together.
