The program\, called Free\, is a combination of weight loss and nutrition\, but more than that\, it is a method to change one's relationship with food.
Palazzolo has been running her "\;Free"\; program for several years out of Southern NH where she is also a fitness and gymnastics instructor. It was shortly after recovering from an eating disorder and years of unhealthy self-image on her own that she realized she could help others to overcome society's view of perfection as well. "\;I am not a nutritionist\, psychologist\, physician or physiologist\,"\; she states\, "\;I am an ordinary person who through many trials and tribulations has found peace with my physical self."\;
Excerpt\:
"\;The concept of losing body fat\, and therefore weight\, is a simple mathematical equation. Consume less calories than you burn. This is the only sound solution to the physiological task of weight loss. The psychological task of weight loss is another story indeed."\;
Bring your questions and join us for this fascinating and important event.
