Nutrition And Healthy Living
Ideally this is a 6 week series, however, we can tailor it to 4 weeks by leaving some topics out. Following is a description of the course.

This fun and interactive six week class will arm you with the basics for a healthful diet and provide you with practical techniques you can live with. Whether your interest is weight management, ensuring a balanced diet, or you just want the tools to make your goals come together this class is for you. Topics include: basic nutrition (protein, carbs, fat, alcohol, vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals), developing & maintaining reasonable goals, label reading, quick cooking ideas, meal planning, shopping, snack options, eating out, traveling and activity options.

Intuitive Eating
(Approximately 10 weeks) This course is based on a book by the same title. The focus is living without dieting, i.e. say good-bye to dieting forever!  The goal is for participants to make peace with food and honor healthful eating by throwing the guilt but not the food out. Body image issues are also discussed. This topic is very popular as many men & women are becoming tired of all the ‘food rules’. This series breaks down misconceptions, guilt, etc. associated with a diet mentality. The ultimate goal of this series is to learn to eat healthfully and honor your body’s cues so your body can find its natural weight. 

Nutrition for Diabetics
(Approximately 4 weeks) This includes the latest information and practical advice on how to manage diabetes. We discuss carbohydrate counting, meal planning, blood glucose self-testing, and exercise. At some sites, the company’s insurance company has picked up the expenses for this course.
