The Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead

Adult Weight Management

Maintaining a healthy weight isn’t just good for your physical health, it plays a vital part in your mental wellbeing too. If you’re overweight, you’re more likely to suffer a stroke and heart attack than others of your age, medical conditions such as Type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers including breast and bowel. There is strong evidence that weight issues also link to depression.

How we can help you

Here in The Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead, we offer a 12-week programme, a 45-minute Nutrition Workshop, 45 minutes of physical activity, plus lots of options to understand food choices to find tasty, small changes to help you lose weight for good. We run groups and one-to-one sessions with our trained and friendly registered nutritionists. They are also fun and sociable, giving you the chance meet people who, just like you, want to get fit and lose weight.

We encourage a balanced approach including both what you eat and helping you to move more, as well as helping you to track your progress – we’ll be there every step of the way, and to cheer on every pound you lose.
