🥗 Food Program

Our dietitians can design programs tailored to you with minimal or no use of meal replacements. This is a great option for people who prefer to stick to whole foods or who want to transition from meal replacements to a more sustainable long-term approach to weight management.

🩺 OUR PROGRAM

Our goal is to provide a thorough and thoughtful assessment of your weight management concerns, along with any associated medical conditions. Based on this evaluation, we will develop a personalized program designed to meet your specific needs. This plan may include one or more of the following components:

💪 FOCUS ON EXERCISE

Exercise is an important part of weight loss and maintenance for long-term health. Combining exercise with a solid nutrition plan and, when necessary, medications can create a well-rounded approach to wellness. Our nurse, Mary Ellen, has a passion for fitness and can help plan an individualized fitness approach for you.

🥤MEAL REPLACEMENT PROGRAMS

Meal replacement products play a valuable role in weight management by offering a convenient, calorie-controlled way to maintain balanced nutrition. Designed to provide essential nutrients like protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals, they help individuals control portion sizes and reduce overall calorie intake without sacrificing nutrition. When used as part of a structured plan, meal replacements have been shown to be effective tools for both weight loss and long-term weight maintenance.

♻️ MAINTENANCE PROGRAM

Our primary goal is to help you maintain your goal weight and avoid regain. While most diet programs lack a strong focus on maintenance, we recognize it as the most crucial part of long-term weight management. Once you reach your goal, you’ll receive personalized counseling to develop a sustainable strategy. To support your continued success, we proudly offer FREE, lifelong support and counseling for all patients who maintain their weight loss.

💊 MEDICATION PROGRAM

FDA-approved medications, including phentermine and GLP-1 therapies, can be an effective complement to your weight loss plan. For some patients, these medications provide additional support when combined with consistent, weekly sessions with a registered dietitian. Dr. Ratay carefully evaluates each individual to determine the need for medication and to select the most appropriate option.
