WHY U WORKS

The truth is that weight loss programs work. They work because they follow the basic principles of weight loss. However, not every dietary approach works for everyone. You are an individual with a unique genetic makeup, unique metabolism, unique barriers to weight loss, unique health challenges and unique needs. A one size fits all approach to weight loss doesn’t work.  Unless your individuality is taken into account when designing a weight loss program you won’t get the results you’re looking for.

Every U Weight Loss Clinic has Certified Weight Loss Health Coaches that have received extensive training in the area of weight loss and are qualified to coach you through your program and make modifications where necessary.

Why are our programs so effective?

In-depth assessment of your personal health.

We assess your current health condition from the beginning to come up with a unique plan for your success. This evaluation is the first step towards setting up your personalized program. Our three-step process uses your health history, Biomarkers of Health assessment and one-on-one consultation to create a plan customized for you.

The right kind of weight loss.

The fact is the stepping on the scale tells you the sum total of everything that is in your body. But how do you know how much of that number consists of body fat? While it’s great to lose weight, what’s even better is to lose fat. And losing several pounds of water every week does nothing to help you reach your weight loss goals as this can be regained just as quickly as it’s lost. Our certified Health Coaches can determine whether your weight loss is from water, muscle mass or body fat and adjust your program accordingly.

Realistic weight Loss.

How much you can expect to lose every week depends on many factors. Using the results from your health assessment, we can accurately anticipate how much weight and body fat you can lose over time and make sure you stay on track with your goal.

Real food.

All of our programs offer calorie-controlled nutrition plans based on real food. Nothing is pre-packaged and we don’t promote foods that contain artificial sweeteners, preservatives or synthetic ingredients. Real food nutrition sets you up for eating in the real world.  Our meal plans are created by nutritional consultants with culinary backgrounds who understand the importance of food quality as well as quantity. The ingredients used for your meals can be found at your local grocery store, the recipes are amazingly tasty and you’ll enjoy every minute of eating yourself thin.

Exercise integration.

U Weight Loss is one of the few weight loss programs promoting exercise as a component to the program. All major health organizations highly recommend regular physical activity, along with a balanced diet, as part of a healthy lifestyle. There’s no better time to begin increasing your physical activity than when you’re on a weight loss program. Not only will it enhance your results, it will help you keep the weight off long term. We have created our own comprehensive exercise program designed by certified personal trainers that include three important components of exercise. The program is simple, doesn’t require you to be a member of a gym, and easy to incorporate into every phase of the U Weight Loss program.

Personal support.

At each visit to our clinic you’ll receive the support and knowledge necessary to understand how your lifestyle, activity levels, food intake and health history have an impact on your weight. You’ll learn how to modify behaviours and make the adjustments necessary to lose weight and keep it off permanently.
