CALGARY WEIGHT MANAGEMENT CENTRE
Safe Sustainable Weight Control
Housing a highly skilled and enthusiastic multidisciplinary team, Calgary Weight Management Centre provides expertise to patients seeking assistance with achieving and maintaining a healthier weight
Diets don’t work because no one can “diet” forever. “Diets” come with a start and an end, and often with the end of a diet comes weight re-gain, or relapse. Those who try many different diets frequently experience weight cycling - the repeated loss and re-gain of body weight. For many people, weight cycling can also lead to feelings of discouragement and failure, which can then contribute to further weight gain and lower self-confidence.
Calgary Weight Management Centre is a patient focused weight management facility that provides comprehensive and realistic weight loss and weight maintenance programs to adults, children and families who struggle with their weight.
