Stay True to Your Goals: Altru’s Improved Weight Management Program
At Altru, we know weight loss isn’t as simple as signing up for a
gym membership or starting a new diet. Changing your eating and exercise
habits requires patience and commitment, which is why Altru has partnered
with Health Management Resources® (HMR) to offer an evidence-based
weight management program structured to provide you with the information,
support and accountability necessary for you to meet and maintain your
long-term weight-loss goals.
Available to Altru & You With Medica℠ members for the reduced price
of $50 a month, our program offers weekly virtual classes (available in
person at our Grand Forks location), educational information and recipes,
health coaching and medical supervision for individuals with other high-risk
conditions. You will have access to a community of registered dietitians
and exercise physiologists, as well as other dedicated members to support
each other to eat well, be more active and stay on track.
Getting Started
The program kicks off after you schedule your free consultation with one
of our health coaches and is broken into two phases. The first phase includes
a structured meal plan of fruits, vegetables and meal replacement shakes
(sold separately), which promotes safe weight loss and helps establish
a healthy dietary routine.
During the second phase, our health coaches will guide your transition
to a more individualized plan, instilling the type of eating habits you
can sustain for life. If you’re not moving through the program as
quickly as you’d like, don’t worry—there is no definitive
start or end date. Stay as long as you need the extra push, and stop whenever
you feel you are ready to continue your wellness journey on your own.
