The document discusses the Take Shape for Life weight loss program. It provides examples of clients who lost significant amounts of weight and were able to get off medications for diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. The program involves eating 5 Medifast meal replacement shakes or bars per day plus one healthy homemade meal. Clients lose 2.5-4.5 pounds per week. After the initial weight loss phase, clients transition to a lifestyle program focused on developing healthy habits for lifelong weight management. The program is supported by health coaches and costs on average $300 per month.
