The Veterans Weight Loss Support Group was created and designed for Veterans, active duty Servicemembers, their dependents, caregivers and friends of veterans. My HealtheVet helps you partner with your health care team. It provides you opportunities and tools to make informed decisions.
The best way to manage your weight is to balance what you eat and drink with how active you are. Did you know there are simple actions you can take to eat wisely? By eating wisely, you will maximize your health. Here are tips on Getting Started with your own eat wisely plan.
Obesity has been linked to several serious medical conditions, including high blood pressure, diabetes, and poor cholesterol levels. For this reason, obesity is likely the most important single contributor to cardiovascular mortality in the United States. Fortunately, intensive weight management programs are an effective treatment for obesity. Such programs help people lose weight and improve their measures of cardiac risk. In response to the growing numbers of obese veterans being treated at VA Medical facilities, the Department of Veterans Affairs developed the MOVE! Program. Veterans who commit to MOVE! and participate actively do lose weight.
Unfortunately, MOVE!, like other weight management programs, requires its participants to attend classes and to exercise, often at locations and times that are inconvenient.
The Creators of this group, Veterans Weight Loss Support Group propose to make it easier for members to participate by offering MOVE-style education and this exercise group which can be utilized by its members at any time 24/7. This group is open to everyone.
