- people who do not want to put on any more weight.
For further details please view the Sections pages.
What makes Shape-Up special?
Shape-Up is not a diet or an eating plan. And it's not just about weight loss.
It is a psychological approach to managing eating and physical activity.
The idea for the Shape-Up programme came from a group of health professionals
who had worked with groups of overweight people. They found that overweight people
had much more success in adopting a healthy lifestyle if they used advice from both
dietitians and psychologists. The Shape-Up programme combines expertise in
psychology, nutrition, exercise and health promotion to maximise your chance of success.
It's not a programme that you start and then finish a few weeks or months later.
Instead it gives you the skills and the knowledge that will help you to carry on with a
healthy lifestyle for a lifetime. You may want to re-visit parts of the programme in years to come. |
