We are delighted to introduce two new nutritional programs that will guide you towards success in your nutritional goals. Within these programs, you will create and implement healthy and enjoyable eating habits, complimented by a physical activity routine that you'll enjoy integrating into your daily routine. Whether you are looking to change your relationship with food, eat more health-fully, or are watching your weight, you will have the support necessary to motivate you towards the end result. With the guidance and support of our Registered Dietitian and Personal Trainer, Jonah Soolman, RD, LDN, CPT, you can achieve absolute nutritional health.

NUTRITIONAL BOOT CAMP: While "enrolled" in our Nutritional Boot Camp, you will be making major dietary changes in order to improve the quality of your life now and for the future. These changes will affect your overall energy, weight and body composition and can naturally help improve specific symptoms caused by your current lifestyle. Specific changes may include: · Detoxification · FirstLine Therapy · Candida Elimination Diet · Gluten Free Diet · Dairy Free Diet

EATING FOR LIFE: Lifetime change does not occur instantaneously. In our Eating for Life program you will receive tools and training to continue your successes, and minimize your setbacks. In addition, when succeeded by the Nutritional Boot Camp, this is an excellent maintenance program to help you stay on track. When taken independently from the Nutritional Boot Camp, this program is designed to help you recognize choices in your nutrition that could be changed to better benefit your health while setting the foundation for a lifestyle that will lead to a healthier body. Each program consists of 3 - 6 sessions of 30 - 60 minutes. They are customized to your lifestyle, taste, schedule and economic situation. Each program takes a customized look at how you can improve your quality of life through nutrition.

The Wellesley Police Department has partnered with Nixle www.nixle.com to bring community notifications to a new level. The system, which is free, allows citizens to sign up for notifications from the Wellesley Police Department. Users then decide what type and how many notifications they will receive. Users can also specify whether they receive the alerts via their text capable cell phone, email, website, or all three.

This is a great way to stay informed about what is going on in the Wellesley community, whether you are at home or away. The Wellesley Police Department is very committed to this service and strive to make accurate, fast notifications to citizens.

Here is a breakdown of what the Wellesley Police will be sending via this service:

ALERT ADVISORY: This is the highest level of community notification and will be reserved for very important events. Such notifications will include significant crimes of violence, bank robberies, bomb incidents, mass evacuations, missing children and major fires.

ADVISORIES: This is the second level of community notification. Items that will be sent include serious accidents, property crimes (break ins), vehicle and suspect descriptions, and other minor events that the Wellesley Police is involved in.

TRAFFIC: This is the lowest level of community notification and will include planned street closures, traffic updates around town, expected delays due to construction, and other traffic related matters.

COMMUNITY: This notification is reserved for Wellesley Police non-breaking news, non-emergency type notifications that may be of interest to the Wellesley community.
