Cloncurry’s time to Lighten Up

CLONCURRY residents will have the chance in May to learn how to make positive lifestyle changes to achieve long-term weight loss and reduce their risk of chronic disease.

The Lighten Up to a Healthy Lifestyle program will be offered free to Cloncurry residents, run by Mount Isa Public Health nutritionist Lauren Jeffs and Cloncurry Blue Care Community Service Manager Helen Govan.

Cloncurry residents could turn their life around and get their health and happiness on track by setting aside just two hours a week, according to Ms Jeffs.

"The Lighten Up program is a group-based healthy lifestyle program for adults who want to improve their health.

"It provides people with information, knowledge and skills to help set and achieve goals for long-term health benefits," Ms Jeffs said.

It didn't focus on short-term results but on strategies that enabled people to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

"It helps people develop a healthy attitude to eating and physical activity."

Ms Jeffs said the program did not provide a "diet" to follow but instead helped people to:

l prepare and enjoy healthy food

l discover enjoyable ways to be physically active
