| Description: | The next Women's Health University (WHU) program will feature JCHS's own Glenn Kent, Ph.D.! Dr. Kent will discuss many issues surrounding weight loss, including the role our brains play, and the safety of weight-loss drugs and diet trends.
You've probably heard the saying "mind over matter." And when it comes to losing weight, our brains definitely play a role. You may even find yourself asking: Why is it so hard to lose weight? Will a new diet trend work for me? Are weight-loss drugs really safe? For answers to these questions and more, join us for an informative luncheon on the psychology of weight loss and also learn tips for improving your eating habits.
