My problem is consistency. When I follow the program guidelines, even if I am not working out, I lose weight. I just can't seem to get myself to consistently pass on those things that I love - like ice cream! The program starts with a medical exam and a blood test to ensure you are healthy enough for wight loss. If you are, then you are evaluated to determine, weight, BMI, body fat, caloric intake to maintain current weight and suggested intake to meet goal weight. You discuss an appropriate weight goal and decide upon that with a counselor. Then they provide you with a detailed diet plan to reach your goals. You are given vitamins and iron to take daily and are given a weekly B-12 shot while in the weight loss portion of the program. It is an 18 month commitment. Approx 3-6 month to take off the weight and the remainder to maintain it. For people with larger weight problems those timelines are adjusted, of course. You are monitored at least bi-weekly to start, with reducing time frames as you begin losing the weight and then eventually shift into the maintenance phase of the program. If it is something you are interested in, they are having a half price special right now to try to encourage new customers. Physician's Weight Loss Center of Manassas on Sudley Rd. The number is (703) 335- 9149. Please let them know that I referred you if you decide to check it out! Michelle, The program is excellent. My problem is consistency.

I am looking for a way to stay accountable for my eating habits and excercise. I am not able to be strong long enough on my own to see definite results. ANd the holidays are coming! I am interested to hear if this diet program worked. Thanks! Hi Lisa,
