Penn State Extension will present "The Volumetrics Weigh of Life: Weight Management Plan," a series about a science-based method to manage weight while eating satisfying and nutritious foods. Those who want to learn strategies to eat well for optimal health may also be interested in the information. The workshop will take place from 4 to 5:30 p.m. on Tuesdays from Jan. 6 to Feb. 10 in Room 148 at Penn State Extension's York County office, 2401 Pleasant Valley Road, York.

This program is based on the research of Barbara Rolls, a professor and chair of nutritional sciences at Penn State. Instructors will discuss fundamental weight management principles and emphasize sustainable eating patterns for lifelong weight management. Each of the six classes will provide calorie density lessons, food demonstrations, examples of Volumetrics food choices, and interactive learning opportunities through group discussions.

Participants will learn to think positively about what they can eat, use science-based nutritional advice to achieve and maintain weight management goals, choose foods to manage hunger and increase satiety, and modify recipes to incorporate the Volumetrics principles.

There is a fee. To register by Friday, Jan. 2, visit https://extension.psu.edu/the-volumetrics-weigh-of-life or call 877-345-0691.
