Everyone’s weight loss needs are different. That’s why our approach is personalized and comprehensive. Each New Profile program is tailored to individual needs and based on a patient’s medical history and current condition.
 
Profile Plus is a program for individuals needing to lose approximately 35 pounds or more, with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or greater. During the "jump start" phase, patients go on OPTIFAST®, a highly nutritional meal replacement for the first 12 weeks. Patients on this low-calorie diet see the doctor, on average, every other week to closely monitor blood sugars and other vital levels. An individualized exercise program, plans for ongoing nutrition and long-term behavior modification is introduced into each patient’s regime every week. 

Profile is a program for the patient needing to lose between 20 and 30 pounds with a BMI between 25 and 30. This program employs an 800-calorie diet (OPTIFAST®) over six weeks, bi-weekly doctor visits (on average) and support sessions that educate patients on the importance of maintaining a healthy diet, steady exercise and a lifestyle which fosters both.

PRO-FIT offers another option for those people looking to lose between 10 and 25 pounds. This program includes a partial meal replacement, lifestyle modification, dietary and exercise counseling.
 
Here’s how it begins
Patients come in for a complete physical with the doctor, as well as an EKG, body fat analysis, weight, blood pressure, measurements and metabolic testing. At this time, the patient also gets a complete overview of what the program involves. The patient is then enrolled in the appropriate New Profile program. Each program entails a once a week commitment for two hours.
