Rock Co. Residents: Online “Eat Smart, Move More – Weigh Less” and “Eat Smart, Move More – Prevent Diabetes”

Rock Co. ADRC offering “Eat Smart, Move More Weigh Less” / “Prevent Diabetes” in 2023

We often have high hopes for our new year’s resolutions, “This year I’m going to: eat better, lose that holiday weight, get off the couch, get those blood sugars under control, etc.” The truth of the matter is those resolutions often fall flat due to lack of support and waning motivation. Our Health Promotion programs can give you that support and motivation – helping you be successful! The ADRC/Aging office of Rock County has partnered with North Carolina State University to offer two evidence based ONLINE programs that start in January 2023:

  • Eat Smart, Move More – Weigh Less, (20 seats available)
  • Eat Smart, Move More – Prevent Diabetes, for those with a pre-diabetes diagnosis (5 seats available).

These programs normally cost $235 and $429 but are being offered for a suggested donation of $25 and $45. Register by December 30, 2022 and get an additional discount!

Participants must be age 60+, a resident of Rock County, and have access to a working computer/tablet and internet access for the duration of the Eat Smart series. In order to receive the discount, participants must be age 60+, but people of any age can participate in either program, so younger people might ask their insurance if it would cover it.

See the flyers below for further information. For questions, or to register for either “Eat Smart” series, contact the ADRC/Aging Health Promotion Coordinator, Lisa Messer at: 608-757-5309 or email Lisa.Messer@co.rock.wi.us. A special code will be given at time of registration.
