Diet Center

While I was really excited to begin this plan, it was shockingly expensive $900 for evaluation, first week of supplement bars and 10 weeks of consultation time. I didn't feel supported or linked and probably only got 6 weeks of consultation before my 10 weeks "expired" - this was news and was never explained on the front end. I thought 10 weeks was 10 session of consultations, if I had known about the expiration I wouldnt have started this during the busy summer months with a lot of travel planned ahead. It wasn't worth the the money. Office hours are limited. There was no sense of community or weekly handouts with new ideas, more like paper copies of recipies vs. program material. Big push to sell the Diet Center branded foods, supplements, etc. I didn't see results and made little progress. Recommendations were the same each week - nothing shocking - drink more water... As a "non stellar" client no one has ever called since my last meeting. I feel really stupid for spending the money on the front end. This program is a PASS.

Pros: staff was nice
Cons: limited office hours, program was mass market not tailored to me, limited results, big push to sell program foods, etc

There is so much flexibility and there are so many different options at the Diet Center that anyone who wants to lose pounds and inches is sure of finding just the right way to achieve success. Your personal approach tailors the program to an individual's life style. I think that's what makes the Diet Center unique. Thermogenics and those magic supplements really work for me, and the meal replacement bars are a great help when I'm on the run. Otherwise, it is good to be able to live a normal life and eat out even when following one of the diet plans.
After only four weeks at the Diet Center, I had lost the eight pounds that had refused to come off any other way. Now that I'm back to weighing what I weighed twenty years ago, I feel confident that your maintenance program and regular counseling sessions will keep me where I want to be.
It is never easy to stick to a diet, of course, but the enthusiastic support you and your staff give your clients makes it all possible. Thanks for everything.

With a bit of hesitation I made an appointment with you on January 15th this year for a free consultation. I was not feeling good about myself, physically and mentally. After our talk, I signed up for a 3-month weight reduction program AND the one-year maintenance program. As you know, I was not entirely new to the program since I was a member back in the early 90's but the program has since changed - for the better.
Thanks to you. I've lost 30 pounds! Your energy, positiveness, care and concern were so very helpful to me and I know that I could not have done it without your guidance. You introduced me to a better way of eating to complement my busy lifestyle. It is such a good feeling when someone comments on how good I look - I do not hesitate to mention that I am a member of Diet Center with a terrific counselor. I feel a lot different today than when we first met-I'm more attuned to my body--physically and mentally. And, I can well understand the need for a year's maintenance to ensure I stay right on track for better health. I've not only lost weight but also gained a friend.
I want more people to come and see you. I know they would not regret it.
Thank ever so much.

I want to take a moment to thank you for all you have done for me. My case must be rather typical...American male in his 50's who has gained the proverbial "pound-a-year" and is suddenly 20+ pounds overweight. Previously I could always drop 5 pounds whenever I wanted. That was no longer true. I needed help.
One of the best decisions I've made in years was to call you and use you as my "diet coach." The Diet Center program and especially your personal attention, helped me lose those 20 poundsin about 6-8 weeks. Just as importantly, you have re-educated me to a healthy, nutritious approach to eating. For the first time in my life I'm reading ingredients labels and making conscious decisions about my nutrition.
Thank you so much. Your professionalism, dedication and passion about health and nutrition made a huge difference in my life. You made dieting fun (almost) and extremely satisfying . I've reached my goal and I feel I now have the knowledge to stay with a healthy approach to eating.
I will continue to refer friends and family to you because of the great work you do.

Becky, I would like to thank you for making my Diet Center experience such a positive one. The "one to one" program and counseling helped me "re-align my relationship with food" by putting it in its proper perspective.
This is about so much more than going "on a diet". It is about evaluating what is important to oneself and making intelligent decisions about one's own priorities. I would recommend this no nonsense program to anyone who has tried all the commercial diets and is ready to seriously apply themselves to weight loss and maintenance.
