The beeSlender Weight Loss Lesson Plan

Weight loss lessons are divided into three phases.

Questions about a lesson? Having problems not covered by a lesson? Our nutritionists, psychologists and exercise physiologists provide daily counseling through our forum.

Phase one

The Lesson focus is on weight loss ~ diet, exercise and lifestyle techniques are used to achieve successful weight loss. Guidelines on determining your caloric requirements and "Quick-start diet menus" are provided.

Phase Two

Develop skills and habits for successful weight maintenance. Each lesson emphasizes making the lifestyle changes that will make your weight loss last.

Phase Three

Actively practice weight management techniques until they are second nature while at the same time learning more about managing your diet and lifestyle. You are "locking in" the diet, exercise and lifestyle changes you have made in phases one and two.
