Help in Finding the best weight loss camp for Boston Residents

At Camp Pocono Trails, we are the top health and fitness program in the United States. We serve campers from all over including Boston.  Our program has been around for over 20 years serving Boston families and we are fully American Camp Association (ACA) accredited.

Our program is located on 350 spectacular acres with over 100 activities.

Optional Weight Loss Family Camp for Boston Families

The best advantage of attending our weight loss family camp is that everyone leaves on the same page. There is no miscommunication about what is on program or off program as parents and children alike receive the same nutrition, fitness, and culinary instruction.

Research has shown that family involvement such as offered at our weight loss family camp can produce better results than sending your child to camp alone. One meta-analysis that was published in the International Journal of Obesity and Related Metabolic Disorders looked at over 20 research articles on family involvement in weight loss.

It was found that beneficial effects were seen when interventions were taught to both parents and children alike across multiple research studies. Benefits were seen in both parents and children when weight loss interventions are implemented as a family versus just implemented by the parents or child alone. In other words, you will see greater results in your own weight loss and your child will see greater results with their individual weight loss then you would if either of you attended a weight loss program individually.

A Summer Weight Loss Camp that Reinforces Goal Setting for Boston Campers

The key to overcoming setback and obstacles is perseverance. At Camp Pocono Trails learning to persevere is a skill set that all campers take home. Goal setting develops intrinsic motivation to change. Through insight-oriented group discussion led by licensed counselors, our campers become self-aware of the bad habits they need to kick. Our expert staff shows them the way. We help our campers identify what they want to achieve, and we help them to establish realistic steps to achieve their goals.

Our Massachusetts campers learn how to quantify their goals into daily digestible tasks. For example, if the goal is to raise their grade point average then we look at the behaviors that are impeding this goal. One obstacle might be that when they get home they have no energy. In this case setting goals that identify healthy snacks that provide and sustain energy until dinner is appropriate. Another obstacle might be that they spend too much time texting with their school friends instead of getting their homework done. In this case, it might be appropriate to identify ways that using the cellphone helps to complete homework and ways that it can be an obstacle. Then, addressing appropriate times to text friends should be addressed. These are some of the ways your teens will learn to balance technology in a healthy lifestyle.
