MOVE! Weight Management Program

The MOVE! Weight Management Program in Bessemer, AL, is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of Veterans through effective weight management and health promotion initiatives. Our mission focuses on screening every Veteran receiving care at VA facilities for obesity, ensuring they have access to a variety of tailored weight management services that meet their unique needs and preferences. Participants can benefit from engaging group sessions, convenient telephone lifestyle coaching, and TeleMOVE!, which allows for in-home support through messaging and clinician contact. For those who prefer to take a self-directed approach, the MOVE! Coach mobile app is available, alongside options for weight loss medications and bariatric surgery for Veterans facing ongoing challenges with weight. To get started on your journey toward improved health, connect with your local MOVE! Coordinator or VA provider who can guide you through the enrollment process.
