Quick 20 Healthy Weight Program – NEW!
Recent studies have shown important health benefits of losing 15 to 20 pounds even for patients who are mildly overweight. Whether you want to lose some weight for your health or to look and feel better, our Quick 20 program is designed for you to lose weight conveniently, rapidly and comfortably without hunger, pills or shots, safely under clinical supervision. It is designed for new patients and also for our former patients who may have experienced some regain they need to address before the problem worsens. This program requires a medical screening exam and medical monitoring every other week anytime during our clinic hours without appointment. The protocol uses four New Direction beverages per day plus a simple, prescribed meal (about 1,000 calories per day), formulated to reduce hunger naturally while providing complete nutrition. Classes are not required, but patients will be offered a menu of services for ongoing weight management and preventing regain, including a comprehensive self-directed nutritional/behavioral education program, consultations with a physician, therapist, behaviorist or registered dietician, referral to exercise programs and a wide variety of meal plans for on-going use of meal replacements. Optional but included is a consultation with our exercise physiologists, body composition test and resting energy expenditure (metabolic rate) measurement. Once you become a Hernried Center client, you’ll qualify to purchase New Direction beverage (not otherwise available locally or through the Internet), up to two per day, as meal replacements for long-term weight maintenance.
