The Gaining Lightness program is a free, weight loss program for groups facilitated by a registered dietitian and a registered psychologist, registered nurse or behavioural health consultant. This four-week program runs once a week for two hours, offering advice on what, when and how to eat. The program outlines why diets often don’t work, how to tackle emotional eating, ways to cope with stress and problem solving techniques. With a referral from a CWC PCN member physician, this group is offered at no-cost to patients. Sessions are held at the CWC Primary Care Centre.
The Calgary West Central PCN is made up of 465 physicians in over 135 clinics.
