Are you fed up with always being on a diet? Need help changing your relationships with food and eating?

A new 10-week course, starting in April, could have the answers you’re looking for…

It’s being run by Lesley Butlin and Liz Blatherwick of the Newark-based WeightWise Academy, who’ve been working for the last six years to bring innovation and understanding to weight loss. Having helped many clients recognise the psychological reasons diets don’t work – for more than a week! – they’re now able to share some practical skills and tools with people struggling to manage their weight.

Using a mixture of group work, reflection and didactic teaching in a safe and friendly environment, their courses will help you manage your emotions in new ways other than comfort eating, extend the gap between the impulse to eat and actually eating and improve your self-esteem and mood.

Open to both men and women, the course is free (subject to certain terms and conditions) and takes place at Newark Library, with the first session on Thursday 21 April. You’ll find the full schedule of sessions here – and there’s a one-hour information session, also at the library, from 10am on Wednesday 6 April.
