12 Weeks to Weight Loss and Wellness Group Program

Our non-diet, whole life approach is key to lasting change and long-term weight management.

This is a program like no other. It's about change, balance and self-worth.

What is “12 Weeks to Weight Loss and Wellness?”

Simply put, whatever you have going on in your life impacts your weight, general health and state of being. Where some weight-loss programs put all the focus on your body,  “12 Weeks” uses an integrated mind, body and spirit approach that makes it truly a wellness program. You can’t really isolate your weight or your body from the rest of your life. So what we do is support you in creating awareness and improvement in all aspects. In so doing, the necessary behaviors often just flow out and you reap amazing benefits.

The foundation of the program is the workbook, supported by 12 weekly group sessions, facilitated by a certified coach. You will explore many questions and ideas not traditionally associated with weight-loss programs. The beauty of this program is that you get out of it whatever you put into it and the focus is up to you.

It should be noted, participants are expected to engage in physical activity and make dietary changes, as well as do weekly assignments based on the workbook topics.

“12 Weeks to Weight Loss and Wellness” GROUP program includes:
- 12 Weeks to Weight Loss and Wellness 100 page workbook
- StressMap questionnaire
- The 21 Day Rule Action Planning Workbook
- 1 hour coaching session to review above assessments
- 12 weekly, one-hour Group Sessions
- 2 hours nutritional counseling with a registered dietitian
- 2 hours personal training with a fitness trainer

As a result of fully participating in this program you can expect to:
- Learn and experience an effective approach to goal setting
- Identify stressors, triggers and warning signs and develop healthy coping strategies
- Develop self-awareness in all areas, including, but not limited to, consumption

“12 Weeks” is ideal in organizations as part of a corporate wellness program and is also great for public or community groups. “12 Weeks” is also offered as a one-one coaching program.

Participants from the University of Alberta had this to say:

"My behaviors and values are better aligned."

"I have improved my diet, lost weight (already) - feel better about who I am."

"My life is not yet perfectly in balance, but I have made tremendous strides in bringing back my quality of life and enjoyment in my profession."

"The 12 Weeks to Wellness program has enabled me to make significant changes to my life. These are changes I had wanted to make for a long time, and had tried numerous other ways to achieve these results . . . I am very grateful for the opportunity to have been part of this program."

It is well known that people who have the benefit of support during stressful or changing times experience fewer negative effects. Our individualized approach by a team of professionals, supported by the group sessions, provides an excellent platform for long-term success.
