Nutrition Counseling
The Health & Fitness Center recognizes that nutrition is a necessary step in the pursuit of a healthier lifestyle. We also know that with today's busy schedules it can be difficult to eat healthy and control weight. We can help.

Our Registered Dietitian will assess your nutritional needs, evaluate your current eating habits and provide the tools to help you find a plan to fit your lifestyle. Our dietitian will build an individualized plan based upon your medical & family history, food preferences and activity level.

Counseling is available for members (at a discounted rate) and non-members of all ages and can be one-on-one or group settings. Sessions vary from person to person.

Weight Management Support Group
Are you interested in a support group to help you manage your weight? Do you need more accountability? Do you have nutrition & diet-related questions?

If you said yes to one or more of the above questions, then our Weight Management Support Group may be right for you! A weight management support group is offered at Conway Regional Health & Fitness Center twice a week, Wednesdays at 5:15 pm and Thursdays at 12:15 pm. For more information on this support group, click here.

Metabolism Testing
Master your metabolism!  You can count calories as much as you like.  But unless you really know how many calories your body burns, it could be difficult to manage your diet and exercise for success.  Knowing how many calories your body burns is the first step to weight management.  MedGem* by HealtheTech is a state-of-the-art indirect calorimeter that accurately measures RMR (resting metabolic rate).  RMR is the minimum amount of calories needed to sustain life (circulation, respiration, hormone secretion and nerve activity).  RMR accounts for 65-75% of your caloric needs. 

Knowing your RMR (resting metabolic rate) number will help you to plan healthy eating and activity levels to get you on the road to success.

The Registered Dietitian will measure your RMR and assist you with a nutrition plan to help you meet your goals.  Metabolism testing includes a full nutrition consult and a diet analysis.
