The psychology of weight loss to
be discussed at POP meeting Monday
This week’s Pounds
Off Pulaski meeting will feature a presentation by Perry Brown, Ph.D., Licensed
Clinical Psychologist. Dr. Brown’s
program, “Me First,” will focus on the psychology of weight loss – why we do
what we do and what we can do to start making healthier choices.
The meeting
will be held at 6:00 p.m. on Monday, February 17, in the Lake Cumberland
Regional Hospital Conference Center on the basement level of the East Tower.
Dr. Brown
will discuss a number of issues, including: how our busy lives make us
unhealthy and overweight; the importance of a healthy balance in life and the
importance of loving ourselves; the value of rest and exercise; and the
importance of relationships and how they affect us. He will also examine what happens when food
is our drug of choice.
