Weight Management and Cooking Classes

Being overweight or obese is associated with diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, joint problems and other chronic health conditions. BMI is a measure of overweight or obesity. A BMI greater than 24.9 would let you know you are likely overweight or obese.

Calculate your BMI to see if weight loss might be appropriate for you!

Losing even a small amount of weight can improve your health. ECU Family Medicine offers a weekly FREE Weight Management class to patients of ECUP. The purpose of this class is to teach patients how to lose weight and keep it off.
