You will achieve:

• Healthy eating that is satisfying

The program will not involve any extreme fitness activities or dietary changes. This is not a boot camp, and extreme changes in weight is not the goal. Instead this is a healthy lifestyle program that will lead to regular exercise, healthy eating and positive self care as a way of living, and with that, weight loss will occur naturally and safely so it can be sustained.

This is not a rapid weight loss program.
It is a healthy lifestyle program that leads to a healthy weight that lasts.

Meeting Times:
Group 1 – Tuesdays, Noon – 1:30 pm
Group 2 – Wednesdays, 5:30 – 7 pm
Group 3 – Wednesdays, 8:30 – 10 pm (in conjunction with YWCA)

For those allergic to cats, apply for the Wed 8:30pm group held at YWCA. The first two groups meet in a home with cats.

The cost is just $50 a session, which will start off as weekly and shift to every other week and eventually monthly as the group progresses.

Note: This program does not provide personal training or fitness classes. Instead it complements gym memberships or your existing fitness program.

Testimonials from some current participants after just 10 weeks

Who could imagine that something as simple as changing one’s mindset could have such a profound impact? I used to think I was weak and had no willpower; now I feel truly empowered to make choices that work for me. I’ve re-discovered how much I like cooking, and experimenting with healthy foods. And I’m more active (and more consistent) than I’ve been in months. Rather than focusing on losing weight, I’ve been focused on living better, and that’s really made a big difference in the quality of my life. It’s pretty exciting. ~ Maureen Wiley

I am now aware and making healthier choices. I know I feel better and people are commenting on how good I look. For the first time I am accepting the compliments, it feels good and I feel good. It is really a journey in your head of “unlearning” all the untruths you have been brought up with. ~ Lisa Bourdeau

My mindset has changed so much since I started this program; it is awesome. I’ll never be perfect and that’s okay. I’m not trying to be anymore. Nothing is forbidden, and that is a huge change for me. I used to binge all the time, and I now can’t remember the last time I did that. When I balance my meals and pay attention to my hunger levels, it really helps to keep me in control. This program has made such a difference in my choices and how I feel, and I feel great. ~ Debbie Tateosian

I have already established some significantly better eating habits and thus did not resort to my tried and tested approach of stuffing down all of my worries and frustration with mounds and mounds of food when I had a rough week. I’m not saying that I was “perfect,” but I was so much more aware and this resulted in much healthier choices. My clothes feel a bit looser on me, and I already feel healthier. ~ Michael O’Connell

The food journal and looking at what makes a balanced meal has been really helpful. It is getting easier to look at my meal and evaluate if it is balanced. I am also much more aware of how I feel when I eat balanced meals and snacks, and this is making a big difference in my portions and choices. ~ Heather Hansen

The exercise I am doing is having a great impact on how I feel. After I am done with my walking, I have so much more energy throughout the day. This, in and of itself, is a great reason for choosing a healthier lifestyle. I’m in this for the long run. ~ Tim Lamprey

Alice has incrementally raised my awareness about how eating habits, food choices and exercise beliefs have influenced me. I’ve learned to adjust my “fitness goal setting” by making them more realistic. I’m enjoying “successes” and have reduced judgments about myself by focusing on what went well. Those negative feelings have made me give up on my goals in the past. So far, I’m very pleased with the simplicity of Alice’s Healthy Lifestyle suggestions. They have been surprisingly portable and easy to add into my life. ~ Pandora MacLean-Hoover
