Participants learn about metabolism, managing food choices, examining their current lifestyle and identifying steps needed to lose weight. Lifesteps helps participants develop the necessary skills to manage weight for life.
Lifesteps is a comprehensive 13-step program that helps adults take gradual steps toward a healthier life. The slow and steady progression that is taught by Lifesteps (most participants lose about one pound per week) is the perfect program for people with diabetes or heart disease who have been cleared for exercise. The average weight loss for program participants is 15 pounds.
