The next Backus Weight Loss and Wellness Program will be Aug. 23–Dec. 20.

The 18-week program includes meetings each Thursday (excluding Thanksgiving week) from 5-6 p.m. at the Backus Outpatient Care Center off Interstate 395 in Norwich.

The comprehensive program includes education and support from registered dietitians, physical therapists and behavioral health specialists.  Participants receive a one-on-one consult with a dietitian prior to the group sessions, and have access to a wide range of Backus licensed healthcare professionals to help them lose the weight they’ve wanted to shed for years.

Cost is $415. To register, call 860-889-8331, ext. 4954.  For more information about the program, visit backushospital.org/weightloss.
