FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the Weight Loss Program?
The Weight Loss Program is designed to help people seeking a healthier weight achieve their goals by
making small, modest changes to their daily behaviors, and forming sustainable healthy habits.
Who can enroll in the Weight Loss Program?
The program is designed for adults 18 years and older who desire a healthier weight. This program is not
intended for individuals with specialized needs due to chronic disease or the onset of chronic disease.
How long is the program and how often does it meet?
This is a 12-week program that meets one time per week. Each weekly session is 60 minutes.
What happens during each weekly session?
Each week participants will weigh in, be introduced to a new topic relevant to weight loss, discuss
as a group successes/challenges/suggestions around the weekly topic, and develop goals for the
upcoming week. Topics covered during the program include: nutrition, physical activity, stress and
sleep, positive psychology, goal setting and sustainability.
What can I expect from this program?
This program will introduce participants to behaviors that have been shown to lead to sustained
weight loss, and help participants develop those behaviors in ways that fit into their personal lifestyle.
Will I receive a personalized nutrition or exercise plan in this program?
Because weight loss is unique to each person, this program focuses on helping individuals identify
ways to make small, modest changes to their behavior within the context of their own life and in
support of their weight loss goals. The tools provided during this program, along with the knowledge
and support of the group, are used by participants to develop their own nutrition and exercise plans
that work for them.
Will anyone see my weight during weekly weigh-ins?
Participants weigh in weekly during the 12-week program. This will happen in a private location with
only the participant and program facilitator present. Once collected, this information is used only in
aggregate form to help assess the program’s quality.
