Commit To Nutrition Eat Right For Good Health and Weight Control

Bettendorf, IA – Lifetime health can only be achieved when you understand the power food and exercise have on your body. Developed in conjunction with our “Commit to be Fit” class, the “Commit to Nutrition” class is not about learning to diet. Instead, it’s about changing your lifestyle so healthy eating and physical activity becomes a natural part of you.

Genesis will offer the six-week program on Tuesday evenings from 5:45 pm – 6:45 pm beginning Sept. 27. Class will meet in the Genesis Wellness Center at the Bettendorf Family YMCA. The program will give information about how to fuel your body, portion distortion, the importance of journaling, menu planning and mindless eating. A registered dietitian teaches the class. Take the class before or after you exercise. Not ready to exercise yet? Come to this class to get motivated.

Class cost is $40/person for six weeks. Community and Y members may enroll. Register for classes by calling the Genesis Health Promotion Department at 563-421-3870.
