MOVE! Weight Management Program

The MOVE! Weight Management Program in Ponchatoula, LA, is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of Veterans through tailored weight management and health promotion services. Our mission is to screen every Veteran receiving care at VA facilities for obesity, ensuring they have access to effective weight management options that align with their individual needs and preferences. We offer a variety of services, including group sessions, telephone lifestyle coaching, and the innovative TeleMOVE! program, which provides in-home messaging and clinician support. For those who prefer self-management, the MOVE! Coach mobile app is available, and we also offer weight loss medications and bariatric surgery for Veterans struggling to achieve their goals. To join the MOVE! program, simply connect with your local MOVE! Coordinator or VA provider who can guide you on your journey to a healthier lifestyle.
