I received a letter a couple of weeks ago inviting me to this self management course. They are offering me the online "MyDESMOND" course.
I've read a few threads on the forum with mixed reactions to the course. I'm not sure if I feel the need for it myself if I can get basically the same advice on here.
Are there any significant advantages of taking the course?
If there are no major benefits other than to inform me about healthy eating and exercise then I really don't see the point, I am already making progress with losing weight just by cutting out the carbs and going for regular walks. (Although this has stalled a little with the change in weather!!)
Should I call them?
