The Method
Personalized means using your actual data — not population averages.
Generic weight loss programs give everyone the same plan. Ours starts with labs, DEXA, and your glucose data — and a dietitian who revises your protocol every week based on what the numbers actually show.
Functional lab panels
Comprehensive bloodwork (metabolic, lipid, hormonal, inflammatory markers) used as the starting line — and re-tested across the program so your plan adapts to your physiology, not a population average.
DEXA body composition
DEXA scans give us precise lean mass, fat mass, and visceral readings. Macros, training, and protein targets are calibrated to your scan — not a calculator estimate.
Continuous Glucose Monitoring
Real-time blood-sugar data from a CGM exposes the foods, timings, and stressors that quietly stall progress. Your RD adjusts your plan from your own glucose curves — not generic advice.
Weekly RD sessions
A dedicated registered dietitian on a recurring weekly cadence. Same person, every session — they know your context, your patterns, and what to change next.

A structured weekly cadence — so the plan never goes stale.
Week 0
Onboarding & lab order
You apply, qualify, and meet your dedicated RD. We order your full lab panel and DEXA, and your plan is drafted from your intake while results come back.
Weeks 1–2
Plan calibration
Labs and DEXA results in. Your RD walks you through what they mean and locks in your personalized nutrition, training, and (if applicable) CGM protocol.
Weekly cadence
1:1 RD session every week
Same dietitian, same time slot. We review your week's data, refine the plan, and answer questions. Direct messaging access keeps the loop tight between sessions.
Quarterly
Re-test & recalibrate
Lab panels and DEXA scans are re-run on a structured schedule. The plan evolves with your body — the program never runs on assumptions older than 90 days.

Questions
Before you apply.
No. The program is built around personalized nutrition, structured RD support, and lab/CGM-informed coaching — whether or not you are using a GLP-1. If you are on a GLP-1, your RD will help you build the nutrition and movement plan around it; if you are not, the program works on its own clinical merits.
Sustainable change does not happen in 30 days. Bodies adjust slowly, and the most useful adjustments come from re-testing and refining over months, not weeks. The 4-, 8-, and 12-month tiers exist because real-world results — measured by labs, body composition, and habit retention — compound with time spent inside a structured plan.
No. The program is private-pay. Some clients submit their RD sessions for partial reimbursement under their plan's nutrition counseling benefit — we can provide superbills on request — but we do not bill insurance directly.
You work directly with the same registered dietitian every week. Your plan is built from your own lab work, your own DEXA scan, and (in the longer tiers) your own CGM data. There are no app-only check-ins, no rotating coaches, and no template meal plans handed out at scale.
Our entire team specializes in diabetes care. Every dietitian on staff is trained in T1D and T2D management; our founder is a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist who has lived with T1D for over 20 years. Glycemic management is built into every plan from day one.
