Scale Back Alabama

You are worth it GraphicScale Back Alabama (SBA) is a free, statewide wellness program for adults, ages 18 or older, designed to encourage Alabamians to get healthy and have fun while doing it. We caution individuals to check with their healthcare provider before beginning a new exercise or diet regimen.

Beginning in 2023, we will no longer hold the annual 10-week program. Still, SBA is available as a self-guided, self-paced program for individuals and groups who want to set and track individual goals or as part of wellness programs.

Although weight loss is a goal participants may set for themselves, it is not the only goal. Practicing healthy behaviors at any weight will benefit a person’s health. Many factors affect weight, and it is important that behavior change be celebrated even when weight does not change.
