Medically supervised weight loss program led by an experienced team of registered dietitians. We offer the use of a scientifically researched meal replacement product that was created to specifically help patients with diabetes lose weight and control their blood sugars. The product is only sold through programs that have the medical supervision and also have an educational component. There are only fourteen clinics nationwide that offer this product. The educational classes are lead by dietitians that were formerly part of the now closed UAMS program. Classes meet weekly and focus on helping clients make a lifestyle change and emphasize that this is not just another quick fix or fad diet. Topics include: emotional eating, mindfulness, recipe modification, calorie basics, tips for grocery store shopping, smart strategies for eating out, nutrition basics, as well covering special topics that are current in nutrition trends.We also can provide individualized counseling or coaching for clients that want a more personalized approach. It the is the mission of AHN to help clients lose the weight but more importantly keep it off long term. It is not just about losing weight, it is about improving healthy and adding quality and longevity to life.
