[QUOTE="covknit, post: 1375011, member: 346585"] Oh I have missed the Dundee one. I am down for the Deakin University - demistifing diabetes starting 6 March. I can recommend these courses. I did the science and nutrition one which has just finished. Currently doing well being, Aberdeen university and the Cardiff making sense of what to believe. Loving the Cardiff one. The science one was a good introduction. So far the Well-being one seems to be conventional and makes be want to rock the boat of their complacency but I am not knowledgable enough. The Desmond course was interesting and yes the two leaders set the topics to be discussed but within their framework the ground coverd were set by the attendees. Some knew more than me. A few less. I recall it focusing on calories. The lass next to me was amazed about portion size being the key. I am sure what came as a great revelation to me was a " but everyone knows that" to her. I recall the information being disseminated by taking snack wrappers and placing them in order of calorific content. In the second week it was toy food to be ordered. The focus was on the British good nutrition eatwell plate. The Aberdeen university wellness course and OU science of nutrition course covers it much better. Discussion on this site is a lot more open minded and wide ranging. I enjoyed my Desmond course but the people on it were great and it took place within 2 miles of where I live. [/QUOTE]
