How can an online program be as effective as meeting in person?
Scientific studies show that regular, structured weight loss groups are effective, even when they aren’t held face-to-face. In fact, we think our online program has even more benefits than one you have to physically drive to and attend. • Support information is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week • Distance is never a problem. All that’s needed is a computer with Internet access and a phone. • Meetings are archived and can be replayed for seven days, so you can catch up with a meeting you missed or replay a section that had a particular impact to you. • Meeting online eliminates some of the anxiety, embarrassment or discomfort many people feel when admitting and seeking help for obesity. • One-on-one counseling with a registered dietitian is available if needed.
