21-Day Kickstart Your Health Series: Weight Control & Diabetes Prevention 

(4-Week Virtual Program)

Based on the Physicians Committee’s 21-Day Vegan Kickstart book, this four-class
series promotes a low-fat plant-based diet for preventing some of the most
common chronic diseases. Grounded in evidence-based science, this series will
empower participants by revealing the whys and hows—the knowledge and skills—
for effective and long-term weight loss and maintenance in support of overall
health. 

Participants receive helpful, easy-to-follow handouts and guides to cement
learning and ease them into implementation of new dietary changes, including
healthy menu ideas, weekly menu planning guides, suggested plant-based recipe
substitutions, an easy-to-follow fiber-tracker, and more.

Join us for the 21-Day Kickstart Your Health Series, a 4-week live virtual program based on the Physicians Committee’s evidence-based 21-Day Vegan Kickstart. Designed for long-term weight control, diabetes prevention, and improved metabolic health, this series takes you step-by-step through the science and habits that make plant-based nutrition simple and sustainable.

This is NOT another crash diet or short-term challenge.

It’s a structured, supportive reset that helps you:

• understand why weight and blood sugar change,

• what foods help your body function best, and

• how to build new habits that actually stick.

Whether you're brand new to plant-based eating or looking to recommit to a healthier routine, this series gives you everything you need to succeed — one week at a time.
