Breast cancer patients with overweight or obese body mass indexes face an increased risk of poor outcomes, including a higher incidence of second primary breast cancer and overall mortality. This is a well-documented issue (Azard, 2014; Chan, 2014; World Cancer Research Fund, 2018). Given the high rates of overweight and obesity among American women, and the common occurrence of weight gain following a breast cancer diagnosis, it is essential to implement interventions that support successful weight loss to a healthy range. Certified Specialist in Oncology, Lauren Fay, reviews a comprehensive approach, backed by evidence-based research, to assist women with breast cancer in optimizing their body composition and achieving weight loss. This webinar covers the latest research-supported recommendations for diet, physical activity, and cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques that lead to successful weight loss. Join us to learn how to apply these techniques and gain access to valuable resources.
