Weight loss program offered
McDowell Wellness Center is offering a new “Lose Weight Feel Great” program that begins Tuesday.
“Lose Weight Feel Great” is an eight-week weight loss program supervised by Janet Fluty, a registered dietitian on staff at McDowell Wellness Center, in coordination with fitness trainers there. The program includes group instruction and support as well as individual consultation with the dietitian and a trainer. The program will emphasize weight loss through improved metabolism, good nutrition and exercise with structure, accountability and flexibility.
There is also a “biggest loser” component to the program. It includes cash prizes to individuals who lose the most weight, most inches and greatest percentage of body fat.
