Skeptical but positive experience overall
I was really hesitant and resentful about joining this program because I was forced to join due to my insurance. I (even now) hope I will see the day when our health system recognizes obesity as a disease instead of the failure of the individual. I put off starting the program for months out of protest, but finally gave in and it has been... a very positive experience. I lost 15lbs before even starting any medication after having plateaued with my weight loss for almost 4 years. The program is easy to follow and my coach, Anastasia, (unlike our healthcare system) is an absolute delight and coaches me through a more holistic, understanding, and inclusive approach to weight loss. I never feel judged and have an unbiased accountability partner throughout my journey. I'm almost 1yr in and have lost 40lbs and counting.
