The Weigh to Health programme aims to help people make healthier food choices, become more active and lose weight in a healthy way.
Weigh to Health helps people to develop the skills and confidence to start to make small realistic changes to their eating habits and levels of physical activity. The good news is that it uses a balanced healthy eating approach and people are surprised that they can lose weight but still enjoy their food.
