Girls ages 13-18 can sign up for a free initial 16-week fitsmi Group Coaching Program, aimed at Coaching overweight teen girls online.
As founder of fitsmi.com and fitsmiForMoms.com, Bronxville resident and former member of the Board of Education, Linda Frankenbach has led the development of a breakthrough new online coaching service. fitsmi Group Coaching helps overweight teen girls lose weight, feel better about themselves and take control of their health while supporting their peers in the process.
fitsmi Group Coaching is a 16-week subscription program that includes live weekly on-line group sessions with a certified Registered Dietitian and weekly interactive e-sessions which cover the major topics important to a teen who is struggling with her weight.
The 16-part interactive e-course was developed under the guidance of an advisory group of leading doctors, psychologists and dietitians in the field of teen weight control.
Ms. Frankenbach elaborated: “As someone who really struggled with her weight as a teenager, I have been focused over the past five years on creating an online community and programs that help girls who are struggling at this vulnerable time in their lives,” said Ms. Frankenbach. "Finally we have a program that promises the help that many teen girls seek. fitsmi Group Coaching’s live interaction with a trained coach, online tools and peer support empower teens to make changes that will lead to a healthier weight and self image. Best yet, it’s affordable, designed just for teen girls, and accessible to everyone through the Internet.”
For a limited time and with the permission of their parents, teen girls can sign up for fitsmi Group Coaching for free and participate in the first 16-week fitsmi Group Coaching program beginning Oct. 22.
For more information and to sign up, parents and teens can visit fitsmi.com or email fitsmigroupcoaching@fitsmi.com. Space is limited.
