In fact, a study conducted by the Global Health Institute at Duke University found that the average cost per pound on popular weight loss programs was roughly $123 per pound!
A one-hour consultation with a registered dietitian typically costs $200, with weekly meetings recommended for best results.
What makes these high costs – for what many times is questionable treatment – so frustrating is that in most cases, the expenses are all coming straight out of your pocket.
That’s because most insurance companies view weight loss efforts to be “elective” procedures, and that means their costs are typically not covered under most plans.
This places the burden of payment squarely on you.
With every dollar you spend directly impacting your own household budget, it’s critically important that you meet your weight loss goals in a cost-effective way.
Thanks to the recent FDA approval of a new class of weight-loss medications…that is not only possible – it’s easier and less expensive than most traditional options!
