Behavioral Support Counseling

Optifit Support
An often overlooked contributor to obesity are habits and behaviors that influence dietary choices. To address these issues, the Optifit program includes professionally-directed group support meetings held once per week. These meetings cover a variety of topics pertinent to everyday life challenges that affect eating behavior.  You will be given valuable tools to help you overcome these challenges.  Group attendance is not mandatory, but we feel the meetings are highly educational and participation is strongly encouraged. Optifit trainers also provide valuable support and education to ensure successful life-style changes. Learning to implement a habit of regular exercise and smart dietary choices is the key to long term weight loss and a lifetime of health benefits.

Professional Support
Our physicians and nurses will provide the backbone of your program.  You will meet with them frequently throughout your program.  They are trained in all aspects of clinical medicine and have received additional specific training in metabolic physiology and behavioral support.  Your board-certified physician will closely supervise your care to ensure your safety and provide you the individual attention necessary.  As your health rapidly improves, our physicians will work with you and your primary care physician to oversee required changes in your prescription medications.  Most patients experience significant reduction in their need for prescriptions but should not make changes without guidance from their physician.
