All-Food Program
Dealing with the overall issues of eating patterns and behaviors, our specialists help each person design his/her own program. We employ dietary practices that are successful, but tailor it to your specific food likes and dislikes (i.e., modified low carbohydrate-high protein diet). The goal is to develop healthy lifestyle habits, through professional guidance, that empower you to reach your goals. This program may include the use of body composition analysis, meal planning, food diary, cooking and dining tips and much more.
All-Liquid Diet
To promote healthy, gradual weight loss, we have specially designed an oral nutritional supplement that can be tailored to your individual needs. At 900 calories or more, this is not a very low-calorie diet, you will be actually eating four times per day! Our unique meal replacement shakes includes a high proportion of antioxidants and fiber with superior protein composition and a balanced fat percentage to ensure optimal fat burning and to maintain health.
Combination Program
This program is ideal for those people who have a modest amount of weight to lose. It provides the structure of meal replacements as well as the flexibility of eating healthy foods. The calorie and protein amount is tailored to each individual need.
Medication Program
Medication for weight loss can be helpful for many individuals. If you have a BMI of 30 or 27 with certain medical conditions, this program may be for you. When indicated, we utilize the latest and time-tested medications to optimize weight loss and fat burning. This program incorporates nutrition counseling ("there is no such thing as a magic pill") and exercise guidance. Many people who are at The Center may utilize medications at one point in their treatment. EKG, blood pressure and laboratory analysis as needed to ensure safety.

We work only on a one-to-one approach, thus allowing you the proper time to get your questions answered and achieve the health that you want.
Surgical Program
Gastric Bypass has been performed for almost 20 years. This form of weight control is intended for those people who are morbidly obese. Often a person approved for this type of treatment will need pre and post surgical nutrition support. The National Institutes of Health, The World Health Organization and other leading health authorities have endorsed gastric bypass. We offer the nutrition intervention to aid in surgical preparation, recovery and transition to a healthier lifestyle.
Physician Monitoring
All patients who have not had a recent physical will be required to undergo a physical prior to starting the program. These same patients may require medical monitoring (EKG, vitals, etc.) while on specific programs.
