TIME COMMITMENT
Making lifestyle changes is a long, ongoing process. The program may run for a year. During the first 6 months, there will be virtual interactive sessions. In the next 6 months, you may start meeting with your lifestyle coach and team members face to face once a month.
We want to ensure successful health outcomes for our participants. Thus, we encourage every participants to stay in the program for the full year to help you stick to new habits and avoid reverting into old habits.
THINGS YOU WILL LEARN

In the second half of the program, you will join sessions that will review key ideas, such as tracking for diet and physical activity, setting goals, staying motivated, and overcoming challenges that hinder you from achieving your goals.
