First you register.. give a bit of basic background stuff.
You are assigned a mentor (someone who has gone through the course and guide you, if you desire) Each day you sign in - read the study - answer some questions - all online. It somewhat reminds me of the format of "purpose driven life" - a small study each day in God's word and some simple questions (there are no wrong answers - you learn more and grow closer to God)
Your questions and answers are emailed to you. I plan to keep those emails as I finish the course - to see how I'm grown.
This is no magic pill - but my thought is how can I grow wrong reading God's word and focusing on weight loss?
I hope this helps answer your questions.
And Tracy - I can't wait for school to be over! This warm weather makes it so hard to do school everyday! Our goal is to be done by the end of May!
