April 1, 2020

webinar on weight management

Weight management focuses significantly more attention on weight loss and not nearly enough on helping people who’ve lost weight keep lost pounds off. As dietitians we need to turn more of our attention to helping people minimize weight regain to maximize the health benefits.
