WHY CAN’T I LOSE WEIGHT?
(Weight Management)
Objective: Empower the customer to understand the physiology of weight loss,
behaviors we practice to hinder weight loss, and setting reasonable weight loss
goals.
Scope of Class: We start with a discussion on obesity and its
implications on health. Customers learn about the physiology of
losing weight including insulin and its effect on fat storage. We teach four
obstacles that interfere with the weight loss process and explain
metabolism. Also discussed is the concept of
natural weight loss versus forced weight loss and ideas to get motivated. The
class closes with knowledge on a simple change process and how to keep a journal
to document progress in lifestyle change.
Presentation Format: Power Point with corresponding handouts. Length:
Approximately 45 min to 1 hour. |
