Products & Services
At Medifast Weight Control Centers, we recognize that our society strongly influences an unhealthy lifestyle. Let’s face it, a fast-paced environment and the resulting need for convenience, makes it very difficult to engage in a healthy lifestyle.
With our programs, a client will go through phases to help them safely and effectively lose weight. Clients can expect to lose between 2-5 pounds per week. We utilize the latest in behavior modification techniques and cutting edge technology for weight loss success. We just don’t help them lose weight; we help them change their eating habits and live healthier lives.
At Medifast Weight Control Centers, clients benefit from more than simply weight loss; they also enjoy a health and emotional benefit. A perfect example is Steve – he lost 116 pounds in 32 weeks, lost 88 inches, reduced his blood pressure 30%, lowered his cholesterol by 40 points and triglycerides by 69 points – best of all, now he can outrun his grandkids.
