Since 1969 the Duke Diet and Fitness Center has been successfully helping its overweight patients in Durham, North Carolina lose weight and live healthier lives using a well-rounded program of diet, fitness, and expert medical and behavioral advice and counseling. Recently Duke made their program available to everyone via their website that is consists of four components to help people meet their weight loss goals: a personalized diet, fitness routine, behavioral strategies and access to medical expertise.
You start the program by visiting their site and completing a free evaluation of your body type and goals. With the evaluation you just answer a few personal questions and they calculate out an individual weight loss plan complete with a detailed diet and fitness plan.
Once on the program users have access to a wealth on information and guidance from experts in each of the four components of the program (medical, behavioral, fitness and diet). The Duke Diet site also provides: a library of over 400 recipes designed for healthy eating; a meal planner complete with shopping lists; a guide to eating out meant to show you how to stay on track when at restaurants; a weight tracker to help you measure your success; community message boards where you can express your own comments or concerns and meet people who are going through the same thing.
The Duke Diet has the benefit of credibility as it’s backed by a reputable, prestigious university and boasts a long-standing history of success in helping people to lose weight. Numerous studies have shown that web based weight loss programs have proven to be immensely successful as well. The Duke Diet provides its users with a diverse database of tools and thorough information that hit on every critical aspect of a successful weight loss plan that comes from experts in each field.
It’s not just about losing weight but also helping change your lifestyle so that you can become healthier and happier. The cost is only $4 a week, a great deal when people pay $4000-$6000 a month for the “in-house” Duke Diet and Fitness program. There are no gimmicks; it’s a scientific weight loss plan and resource center that has been proven to work.
