Weight Loss That Lasts: A Proven 3-Phase System
​​
Success starts with a plan. Our three-phase medical weight loss plan guides you through rapid results, gradual change, and long-term maintenance so you can feel confident and in control throughout your journey.
PHASE 1 - RAPID WEIGHT LOSS (6-12 WEEKS)
This phase jump-starts your transformation. With weekly medical check-ins, goal-setting, and Lipotropic (fat-burning) injections, you’ll begin shedding pounds quickly under expert supervision.
​
Each week, you’ll meet one-on-one with a nutritional consultant for personalized guidance and attend a group session led by a physician to set the foundation for long-term success. The supportive group environment offers a safe space to share your challenges, track your progress, and celebrate every win.
PHASE 2 - GRADUAL WEIGHT LOSS
(3-12 MONTHS)
Phase 2 is all about building momentum and reinforcing habits. As your weight loss continues, you’ll begin adding more variety to your meals and applying the tools you learned in Phase 1.
​
Weekly visits keep you accountable with ongoing medical monitoring, food journal reviews, and behavioral coaching. On average, women lose 1–3 lbs per week and men lose 3–5 lbs, up to 10 pounds a month, safely and sustainably.
PHASE 3 - MAINTENANCE
(12 MONTHS AND BEYOND)
The final phase is where transformation becomes your new normal. Once you’ve reached your goal weight, we focus on long-term behavioral change, helping you navigate real-life situations—celebrations, stress, vacations, and everyday routines—with confidence.
You’ll continue meeting with behavioral educators and using the strategies you’ve built to stay accountable and supported. Because keeping the weight off is just as important as losing it, this phase is essential for creating the lifestyle changes that last a lifetime.
Your Medical Weight Loss Questions, Answered
How is this program different from other weight loss plans or fad diets?
​Unlike quick-fix diets or over-the-counter supplements, our program is backed by medical science and follows the guidelines of the American Academy of Bariatric Physicians. You’ll be under the care of a board-certified physician and supported by a team of specialists every step of the way.
Our approach focuses not only on weight loss but also on long-term behavioral change and lifestyle improvement. This combination of medical supervision, education, and emotional support is what makes our program both safe and sustainable.
Can I join the program if I have diabetes, high blood pressure, or another medical condition?
Yes, in fact, many of our clients begin the program with underlying health conditions such as Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, or high cholesterol. Because our program is medically supervised, we’re able to tailor your weight loss plan to your health needs and monitor your progress closely. In many cases, patients see improvements in these conditions as they lose weight.
What kind of support is available outside of my weekly appointments?
We know that lasting change doesn’t just happen during your visit. That’s why we offer ongoing support between appointments, including access to our team for questions, educational materials, and guidance when you need it most.
You’ll also receive tools like food journals and goal trackers to help keep you focused and motivated. Many patients also find strength in the supportive environment created by our group sessions and peer encouragement.
What happens if I hit a plateau or regain some weight during the program?
Weight plateaus and setbacks are normal parts of the journey, and we’re here to help you navigate them without judgment. If your progress stalls, we’ll adjust your plan based on your body’s response and identify any lifestyle or emotional factors that might be at play.
Our goal is to empower you with the tools and mindset to keep moving forward. We’ll work together to troubleshoot and support you, no matter where you are in the process.
Is this program covered by insurance or available with payment options?
Some aspects of our medical weight loss program may be eligible for insurance reimbursement, depending on your provider and plan. We recommend contacting your insurance company to learn what’s covered.
For those paying out of pocket, we offer flexible payment options to help make the program more accessible. Our team is happy to walk you through costs and payment plans during your initial consultation.
