DIABETIC HEALTH CLINIC

EPIDEMIC

Longwarry is experiencing an increase in obesity and lifestyle diseases. These diseases are now in epidemic proportions. What if we made it a goal to improve the health of ourselves and our children?

If you have tried to reduce your weight and are finding it hard or if you struggle with a chronic disease or if you are pre-diabetic or diabetic then this program is something you should not miss.

THE PROGRAM

The Lifestyle Health Program is an intense, life-changing, three month program.

  • When scheduled, there is a two-hour session every Sunday in Longwarry Public Hall.
  • Each session is packed with interesting and relevant information
  • During the program, you will experience professional coaching.
  • You will understand why food can be your worst enemy or your best friend.
  • You will be coached on how to create your own lifestyle change.
  • The online lifestyle change book will be made available for you to use.
  • Your doctor will monitor you through your lifestyle change period.
  • We will provide your doctor with your lifestyle change data.
  • You will receive solid professional support through the program and beyond.

For people who decide to complete the program, the outcomes are often a pleasant surprise. For people who lead the appropriate lifestyle, weight, most lifestyle-related diseases, blood sugars, blood pressure, cholesterol and many other markers normalize.

This program was first run in Longwarry by presenter Debra Ricke, herself a graduate from the program, from September to November 2018. Following the success of the first program, another was run from February to April 2019.
