Our Program incorporates Obesity Canada Guidelines and attempts to Operationalize components of these guidelines with a one page document called "The Pathway doc".

Hello Everyone! We hope that you are all staying well during these challenging times of Stay at Home/avoidance of Covid 19.  Our team has been keeping in touch with our patients via telephone clinics and we are hearing a few common challenges.

1.  People are wanting to bake while at home and are insightfully identifying that their traditional baking recipes are a slippery slope/ not supportive of keeping on track with the given Program and

2. Many are communicating that they are relying on others to grocery shop for them and sometimes are eating whatever is delivered. 

In response to this we thought we would post some potentially healthy options for baking that are in keeping with the Program and as well have devised a grocery list that is in keeping with options that are frequent on the given diets with the Program.
