If you’re a woman dealing with weight-related issues, then you should give serious consideration to Green Mountain at Fox Run. For years, physicians and therapists across the country have referred clients to the 26-acre wooded hilltop lodge called Green Mountain. Lasting change is the common result.
Thelma Wayler founded Green Mountain some 25 years ago; her legacy is a knowledgeable and professional staff that will never tell you to diet. Cited in such scholarly publications as the Journal of the American Medical Association and the Journal of The American Dietetic Association, as well as popular publications including The New York Times and Prevention, Wayler is often considered a pioneer in perpetuating the non-diet approach to long-term weight and health management.
Green Mountain’s philosophy is as follows: in essence, dieting is limiting and restrictive and for those who practice it, a sense of limitation and restriction is the logical result. Any rational, long term solution to weight management should, therefore, not involve dieting and must involve a total approach to healthy lifestyle change.
Instead, Green Mountain addresses weight management through nutrition and exercise. Both are do-able and pleasurable. Mindful eating is what’s facilitated, and accessible exercise programs are what’s developed. Healthy, attainable behaviors are incorporated in progressing you toward the weight-management goals set by you and your hosts. You’ll be encouraged to appreciate the benefits of an active lifestyle, and you’ll be given the freedom to eat what you like — mindfully.
An accredited extern site of the Culinary Institute of America, Green Mountain is well-equipped to facilitate your appreciation of healthy and pleasurable cuisine. Possibilities include homemade blueberry muffins or french toast for breakfast, chicken caesar salad or grilled vegetable pizza for lunch, and maple glazed salmon, mixed greens, and blueberry crisp for dinner. All meals are balanced among an array of fitness activities and behavioral and eating strategy workshops.
