Delicious & Nutritious Food

Wellspring Texas campers enjoy a variety of appealing low-fat foods, including many of the foods they already love -- prepared in a low fat way to help them lose weight and keep it off. Equally important, the Wellspring diet is not a fad teen diet; it is simple, so that kids of all ages can follow it at home, school or anywhere else  without requiring parental control, or forcing parents to play the “food police.”

Campers are served breakfast, lunch, dinner, and two snacks per day in a spacious, modern and very comfortable dining hall. In addition to the “controlled” food served at each of the meals—which are main courses prepared in a very low fat way—there are “uncontrolled” foods available. Uncontrolled foods are fat-free yogurts, cottage cheese, soups, fruit, vegetables and condiments. These are available in an unlimited quantity so that campers can eat as much as they feel they need. The only thing required is self-monitoring, or recording calories and fat grams after meals to keep track of the food campers are putting in their bodies. The result is greater understanding of how food and nutrition work to fuel activity and manage weight.
