Contact our dietitian to sign up for Begin Fit. Begin Fit is a healthy eating and physical activity program designed to help you lose weight, improve cholesterol and lower blood pressure, glucose and triglycerides. Classes begin the last week of January. Email Kym at [email protected].
The program is 10 weeks long. Nutrition classes meet every Thursday at 6 p.m. in the Waterfront Hy-Vee Club Room. Every week, the class topic will focus on a different area of healthy eating. You'll sample new products related to the eating topic and discover how to incorporate healthy foods into your daily diet.
For the physical activty component, participants choose the day, time and type of class to attend each week. Physical activity classes are held at Body Moves and Fitness in Coralville, Iowa. Participation and payment for the Begin Fit program include the cost of attending fitness classes at Body Moves and Fitness.
There are two options available for Begin Fit - a full and basic plan.
The full plan ($390) includes pre- and post- program measurements (body weight, body fat, cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, HDL, glucose and waist circumference). It also includes three one-on-one nutrition consultation appointments with the dietitian.
The basic plan ($225) includes group classes on Thursday evenings and the fitness classes.
Both options make you eligible for a reduced fitness package rate at the fitness center, once the program is completed.
One of our participants last fall gave the following testimonial:
“At first, I was hesitant because of the cost—I was putting a lot of money towards this program, but you two (Beth and I) have gone above and beyond anything I could have ever imagined. I am more than happy and financially, I have gotten way more than what I put into the program. I am very satisfied.”
