My Fit 2 – Flexible Meal Replacement Plan

Lose an average of 2-5 pounds per week.

Flexible, low-calorie weight loss program

PATH Weigh 2

This flexible replacement program was designed for those who have less weight to lose, but would still benefit from stimuli narrowing.  The benefits are in the reduced calories, complete nutrition and perhaps most importantly in the ability to stick with the plan because fewer choices are made.

Should you choose My Fit 2, you will replace most meals and snacks with our OPTIFAST®  and HEALTHWISE meal replacement foods.  You will then only have to focus on eating traditional, low-calorie meals and snacks at other times during the day.

  • Dietitian guidance on reducing meal replacements and incorporating more self-prepared foods.
  • Calories increase each week, but remain restricted.
  • Continued medical monitoring to monitor health and assist in program adjustments.
  • Discuss and create the on going meal plan.

 

Monthly Digest

  • Preventing a Weight Loss Disaster

  • We all want to make our family and friends happy, and many of us go to great extents to put a smile on others faces. But how much do you sacrifice your own needs to satisfy others happiness? Perhaps, for example, your children ask for pizza for dinner. While you might be focusing on your weight loss goals, you may suddenly feel guilty about not taking your children to the movies yesterday after you promised them they could go, and if you aren’t prepared then this feeling of guilt may drive to merge from your weight loss plan.

  • How Obesity May Affect the Brain

  • According to a recent study, obesity may affect areas of the brain that control appetite and the impulse to eat–and overeat. While many people argue that losing weight is all about self-control, medical weight loss specialists understand that obesity is a struggle that many people have difficulty attempting to overcome. Weight loss clinics in Baton Rouge can help you to overcome the impact that obesity has had on your mind and help you to begin living a healthier lifestyle.

  • Becoming Aware of your Hunger Cues

  • Often times when we are having a bad day, we gravitate towards something that makes us feel comfortable. Most comfort foods aren’t packed with nutrients, and aren’t being eaten and consumed because of hunger. Emotional or “head hunger” differs greatly from physical hunger. Emotional eating can be a day-to-day occurrence that most people live with without even fully understanding or realizing. Obesity is one of the largest health problems we face today, and without separation between head and physical hunger, it is often very difficult to make a long term change.
