The Center is proud to now offer a physician-directed medical weight loss program, the TrimYou Certified HCG Weight Loss Plan. We are the only TrimYou Certified center in the area. Using HCG combined with a very low calorie diet, the brain is tricked to think your body is in a “starvation state,” demanding you use up calories from your fat storage at a rate of up to 1 to 2 pounds of fat per day. However, you are able to do this with out feeling starved. This plan forces your body to use up your fat stores, so you are burning your fat instead of food intake. No exercise is required for this program to be effective. Although this may sound a bit scary, the program is monitored by The Center’s medical staff to make sure you are losing weight safely and effectively.
This method of weight reduction is based on Dr. ATW Simeons’ theory that there are 3 types of body fat: Structural Fat is the necessary fat supporting the kidneys, cushioning the arteries, etc. Normal Fat is what our bodies use for fuel and is localized all over the body. Abnormal Fat is surplus fat that accumulates around our waist, hips, thighs and abdomen and causes obesity. Fat deposits of this kind can be “fixed” with the HCG Diet Protocol discovered, researched, and documented by Dr. ATW Simeons on over 100,000 patients.
HCG is NOT a weight loss drug. It is a complex molecule/glycoprotein that contains over 300 aminopeptides. It is found in all male and female human tissue. It occurs in very high levels in females during pregnancy, produced by the placenta. It is believed HCG enables stores of Abnormal Fat to be metabolized by the body for energy when normally they would be inaccessible and never go away with diet and exercise. Patients must have a prescription for HCG.
HCG by itself doesn’t cause fat loss. A specific protocol incorporating a Very Low Calorie Diet, a rigid selection of allowable food choices, and a precise dosage of HCG causes the fat loss. However, it is the HCG molecule that triggers the fat to be burned up for the body to use. These calories are then used by the body and provide the additional 2,000-3,000 calories needed daily by those on the HCG Diet. HCG is “muscle preserving.” Therefore, the majority (if not all) of the weight loss is lost body fat!

TrimYou HCG Weight Loss Program – Patient Testimonials
“During my consultation, I was skeptical that I would lose an average of a pound of fat a day on the program. These doubts were quickly abolished in the first week. I was amazed how the pounds simply melted away without an exercise regimen or ever feeling tired or hungry. I felt empowered and energized. I lost a total of 34 pounds and went from a size 24 to a size 14 in six weeks.”

Health Spending Account
You may be able to use your Health Spending account if you have a medical diagnosis provided by a primary care physician of cardiovascular disease, hypertension, or obesity. The IRS states that allowable expenses under a Health Savings Account are typically the same as those allowed under a qualified medical expense for your federal income tax filing. You must have doctor-prescribed documentation and receipts in the case it is requested by the IRS. If you incur costs related to a weight loss program involving “a treatment for a specific disease diagnosed by a physician (such as obesity, hypertension or heart disease)”, the IRS states this is a qualified medical expense for your Health Savings Account and federal income tax purposes. This includes any amounts you paid as membership fees for joining a weight loss program, and fees for attending meetings of a weight loss group. We recommend you consult with your accountant or tax advisor in relation to your Health Savings Account and tax issues.
