Teens and young adults Weight Loss Camp Education

Our weight loss camp teaches campers that fad diets may prohibit them from getting all the nutrition basics they need. While some fad diets or pills can produce some level of weight loss, as soon as you stop the dietary restriction or pill the weight comes back on. Often, the weight comes back on even more so than before.

Another problem teens and young adults often face is trying to get rid of the food they eat by vomiting or taking laxatives. These are very dangerous signs of a potential eating disorder. At our weight loss camp for teens and young adults, we teach campers the healthy way to lose weight and keep it off for good. We employ therapists that teach mindful eating habits and work on positive self-image and self-esteem.

A Better Alternative than Fat Camp for Teens and young adults

Several Studies have shown that only sustained exercise will increase self-esteem and body image in adolescent and teen teens and young adults. At Camp Pocono Trails, we focus on long-term changes that our campers will adhere to when they transition home.

It is imperative that if you make an intervention with your child that the behavior stick. Fortunately, the Camp Pocono Trails program is totally focused on helping young people make these positive and more importantly permanent changes to their health and self-esteem.

Weight Loss Camp Near Me!

Parents seeking a “weight loss camp near me” are often disappointed to find that there are only a handful of weight loss camps in the United States. When you look at high-quality weight loss camps that are accredited by the American Camp Association, the potential locations shrink even more.

Consider college selection. If your child was interested in a specific career that might require specialized training, would it even be up for consideration that they attend a college out of state like Harvard, MIT or Stanford? Most families would agree that proximity to home is a low decision factor when it comes to picking the right educational setting. When it comes to health and fitness, the same logic applies.
