Weight No More is a program designed to make positive lifestyle changes in all
participants. The idea of the program is to teach and guide the way to positive changes in the eating habits and exercise habits of the participants. This program does not support crash diets or occasional workouts.

We hope that participants will be able to change their habits and in turn reduce the risk of obesity, diabetes, heart problems, and other medical problems as a result of poor diet and activity level. Weight No More is a guided exercise and nutrition program that lasts for 12 weeks. During the 12 weeks Valley West Community Hospital will offer seminars on topics that will lead to the success of everyone. These seminars are:

• Nutritional Needs for Healthy Weight Loss
  March 25, 5:30 pm or 7:30 pm
  Valley West Hospital, Medical Office Building
• Are You Actually Hungry?
  April 7, 5:30 pm or 7:30 pm
  Valley West Hospital, Medical Office Building
• Understanding Nutrition Labels
  April 22, 5:30 pm or 7:30 pm
  Valley West Hospital, Medical Office Building
• Healthy Eating on the Run
  May 6, 5:30 and 7:30 pm
  Valley West Hospital, Medical Office Building
• 5 Ingredients to a Healthy Meal
  May 26, 5:30 and 7:30 pm
  Valley West Hospital, Medical Office Building

To help keep everyone motivated participants are encouraged to attend Lifestyles 101. This is a 6 week class that meets twice a week. The class incorporates exercise instruction, strength training, counseling and nutritional support. Session I Lifestyles 101 is included in the Weight No More fee, an additional 6 week session is available for an additional fee if you wish to continue Lifestyle 101. This class will help keep people on track, motivated, and will increase their endurance one step at a time. Additionally, participants will need to be available for a starting weigh-in, and final weigh- in. Additional weigh-in opportunities will be available.

The goal of the program is to have participants become engaged in a healthier and happier lifestyle. New changes this year include a weekly e-mail, scheduled events, and walks.
