Fat Camp for Teens and young adults

While a “fat camp for teens and young adults” sounds like a good idea, the term we prefer is a “health and fitness camp for teens and young adults.” It is true that childhood obesity has reached epidemic rates in the United States while at the same time, teens and young adults are bombarded with media images of the ideal female body. Often, these images are simply unrealistic.

It is very important that when addressing your daughter’s weight loss issues, that we frame the intervention in a positive manner. This is why we don’t use the term “fat camp for teens and young adults” but instead focus on health, self-esteem, and overall well-being.

Wellness Camp for Philadelphia Residents

Now that The World Health Organization has classified gaming addiction as a disorder, many professionals are questioning if you can truly be addicted to activity. Regardless of terminology, if your teenager is using their smart phone or gaming to the point that it’s causing stress in the family, then it’s a problem.  At Camp Pocono Trails, we help Pennsylvania teens change their habits.  So, whether your child is on their smart phone for 2 hours a day or 12, we can help them to refocus on healthy habits.

Often times with teens change can be painful and can feel drastic. So instead of focusing on what they are losing, it can be beneficial to help them see what healthy habits they are gaining.  At Camp Pocono Trails, we accomplish this by promoting change in a culture of positivity and peer support.

Your family has habits, both healthy and unrewarding that you do every day. Brushing your teeth is a healthy habit that you probably don’t really think about anymore. It’s just part of your normal routine. We help teens add healthy habits to their routine, like daily exercise, preparing healthy meals and actively socializing, so that like brushing their teeth it becomes part of their daily standard.  By adding enriching activities and routines to their life we slowly edge out any room for unproductive habits, like scrolling through Instagram for an hour every afternoon.

A Positive Environment at Summer Camp for Weight Loss

At Camp Pocono Trails, we create an atmosphere of positivity. Our campers leave happy and well-adjusted ready to return to their school and try sports they might not have once considered. Our counselors encourage our campers to do things on their own. Campers learn the importance of nutrition and even how to cook healthy meals independently.
