Begin 10-week Weight Management Program

Date: 9/20/2018
Time:  6:00 PM - 7:00 PM
Type: Health & Wellness
Location: Wilson Ave Hy-Vee Club Room at 20 Wilson Ave SW

Whether your health goals include weight management, personal fitness, or eating healthier, your Hy-Vee dietitians can help! Ask your local dietitian about our Begin program, a 10-week program that emphasizes making changes for better health. The Begin program includes three individual sessions plus seven group classes.

Biometric health screenings are completed at the start and finish to track your progress. Biometric health screenings include measurement of your total, LDL and HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood glucose with a simple finger-prick blood test. Additionally measured are weight, waist circumference, hip circumference, body fat percentage, body mass index and blood pressure, to enable you to best know your chronic disease risk.

This session of classes will be held in the Wilson Ave Hy-Vee Club Room. Classes will be led by Hy-Vee Registered Dietitian Kim Proctor.
