What to Expect
Your journey starts with a comprehensive 90-minute consultation where we discuss your health history, previous weight loss attempts, and specific goals. We'll perform body composition testing and metabolic analysis to establish your baseline. From there, we create your personalized plan combining nutrition education, meal planning, and physical activity recommendations.
Weekly check-ins help us monitor progress and make adjustments as needed. You'll meet with your assigned coach every week for the first month, then bi-weekly as you build confidence and independence. We use proven behavior modification techniques to help you overcome obstacles and stay motivated. Most clients see initial results within 2-3 weeks and reach their primary goals within 6-12 months, depending on how much weight they want to lose.

First-Time Patient Tips
Before your first visit, we recommend keeping a food diary for one week to help us understand your current eating patterns. Wear comfortable clothes for body composition testing and bring a list of any medications or supplements you're currently taking. It's helpful to write down your weight loss goals and any specific concerns or questions.
Come prepared to discuss your complete health history, including previous weight loss attempts, family medical history, and current lifestyle challenges. We'll provide you with a welcome packet that includes meal planning templates, exercise guidelines, and access information for our client portal.
