LighterLife Total
I’m excited, how do I start?
It's simple - book yourself on a free information session
The information session you attend depends on whether you’re
eligible to join LighterLife Lite or the LighterLife Programme. All
of these information sessions are held in small single-sex groups
of people on a regular basis. They last about an hour and are
friendly and informal – you’ll be made to feel very welcome.
When you arrive you’ll be weighed (discreetly)
and have your height measured so I can confirm your Body Mass Index
(BMI). You’ll also be asked to complete an information form and
provide some personal details including name, address, telephone
number, age and some specific medical information.
After watching a DVD which explains more about
LighterLife you can ask any questions. What happens next depends on
how much weight you have to lose…
LighterLife Total
BMI 30 and above
Your Counsellor will give you a health
questionnaire to be completed by an appropriate healthcare
professional. This is because the LighterLife Programme involves
total abstinence from conventional food. Once your questionnaire is
completed, approved and returned your Counsellor will book you into
the next available group meeting which is where your weight loss
journey really begins.
LighterLife Lite
BMI 25 – 29.9
If you have no relevant health issues your
Counsellor will book you into a Lite joining session immediately.
Once you’ve attended the LighterLife Lite joining session you’ll be
ready to join your first weekly group meeting and get the support
you need to live a healthier lighter life.
