Weigh to Go™ is a comprehensive approach to weight management that includes a program offered in partnership with Blue Care Network (BCN). It is available to BCN adult members and encourages members to reach healthy weight and activity levels to help decrease their risk of developing more severe problems such as high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease.
More than 1,500 BCN members have enrolled in Weigh to Go programs in southeast Michigan (the cities of Grand Rapids, Lansing, Rochester, Roseville and Trenton) since 2004. On average, members have lost nearly 20 pounds after one year, increased their physical activity levels, improved their blood pressure and reduced their number of doctor and hospital visits.
To participate with Weigh to Go™, BCN members must commit to a 12-month program that includes nutrition, exercise and counseling. To enroll in the program, participants must be 18 or older and have a body mass index (BMI) equal to or greater than 30 (or members may qualify with a BMI of 27 if other health conditions are present).
