Lifestyle change could be an important part of self care and weight management.

Lifestyle change may force one to set goals. Fear, anxiety, anger and stress; however, may become hurdles along the way.

For example:
* One may  be recovering after a lengthy illness
* One may be recovering after surgery
* One may have just discovered you are at risk for cancer.
* You may be overweight and any more may cost you your life
* Your cholesterol is high and you are hypertensive.

The point is one may be at a stage where lifestyle change is necessary to protect health or to save life. There is help.

When lifestyle change requires weight control, it could be costly.

 Lifestyle change must include dietary modification, physical activity and in some cases behaviour modification.

Setting long-term goals and commitment are important for success with any strategy.

The consumer health education program prepares people to make changes by taking responsibility and control.

The self developed plan makes if affordable for anyone to manage their weight, set long-term goals and be compliant.

There are several behaviour change programs that do not require a  visit to a counselor, they are available online from CD's to DVD's to MP3's.
