The Weight Loss Collective

The Weight Loss Collective

Sat, Oct 17, 8:00 AM
From London WEIGHT LOSS COLLECTIVE Meetup Group

**Weight Loss Collective – Weekly Group** **Our weekly Weight Loss Collective group is about so much more than getting weighed.** **Each week, we come together in a friendly, supportive environment to help you stay motivated, build healthier habits and understand what really influences your weight and wellbeing.** **You’ll receive practical support around nutrition, mindset, behaviour change, cravings, food noise, movement, confidence and real-life challenges. We also look beyond the number on the scales, celebrating progress such as inches lost, improved fitness, increased strength, better energy, clothes fitting differently and feeling more in control around food.** **There’s no judgement, no expectation of perfection and no “good” or “bad” foods. You’ll be supported to find an approach that works for your lifestyle and helps you create changes you can maintain.** **Come along each week for support, encouragement, learning, accountability and a community of people working towards their own goals.** **Your journey. Your choices. Your progress.**
