This program is not for women who are pregnant or nursing, or for people who are currently in treatment for cancer.
How Much Weight Will I Lose?
Most people lose 1 to 2 pounds per day during the first week, and 2 to 4 pounds per week after that. These numbers vary depending on gender, start weight and other variables.
How Does it Work?
For 12 weeks you’ll rapidly approach your ideal weight by eating a low carb, calorie restricted diet that forces your body to burn fat.
Prior to starting, each client must be approved following a full medical assessment with one of our Doctors – your labs and medical assessment are included in the price of the program.
Once approved you’ll begin with an orientation session with our certified nutritionist. This is a one-on-one meeting where you’ll review the details of our program, receive your weight loss book, meal plan, example menu and recipes, appetite suppressant script and your first B12 energy injection!
Following orientation you’ll have weekly visits, or “weigh-ins”. Weigh-ins are one-on-one sessions with our nutritionist during which she’ll assess your progress, teach a brief lesson on nutrition and tweak your diet if necessary.
This continues until the end of the 12 week period.
What if I Haven’t Reached My Ideal Weight by the End of 12 Weeks?
If you haven’t attained your ideal weight by the end of the 12 weeks, we recommend you transition into our SHAPE program. Shape is a 30 day rapid weight loss program; you can repeat SHAPE until you reach your ideal body weight.
