The Ultimate Diet is the treatment of choice for people with significant weight problems (those who want to lose 30 pounds or more). Most participants in the Weight Management Program fall into this category and achieve the most dramatic results with this diet.

Under close medical supervision, patients go on a very low-calorie diet. All food to be taken is provided to the participant, and no grocery store food is allowed.

Specially formulated shakes and prepackaged foods provide two benefits. They eliminate the need to make food decisions, and they promote fast, consistent, safe weight loss. Taken as directed, Ultimate Diet foods provide 100 to 150% of the recommended daily allowance for all vitamins and minerals.

The second part of the Ultimate Diet program is critical to success - weekly weight loss classes and an extensive maintenance program. Often, people who have tried various diets lose weight only to regain it quickly. By helping patients learn new skills and make new choices, long-term success in controlling weight can be achieved.
