How can I improve my chances for keeping the weight off? How successful are other people who follow this program?

Checklist for Evaluating Weight Loss Products and Services Is there an initial evaluation? What type of health professional will supervise the participant? What is the caloric intake and monitoring process? What is the timeline for monitoring progress? What are the specific plan details (i.e., food, physical activity, support)? What are the risks? What are the costs?
