Me and my wife have been using Dr. Patel's weight loss clinic for about 3 months now. We have been super happy with the results. I have lost 30 lbs in 3 months so far. This is a real medical doctor supervised weight loss clinic, not some gimmicky diet fad type place. If appropriate they can put you on prescription diet medications.
They offer a number of different plans for how you can lose weight. The plans range from living on all medical grade diet meals to cooking all your own meals using your own food. We decided to stick with using our own food because we felt we would need to ultimately learn how to eat/cook healthy without using special food in the end so why not just do it up front. Regardless of what plan you choose though they were not the least bit pushy about trying to get you to buy their food vs use your own.
They provided us with tons of information about what foods to eat and recipe websites that had really good tasting food that was diet friendly. I'm a meat and potatoes guy and I thought I would never get by on any diet recipes but it's amazing how many really good diet recipes you can find if you know where to look. Many of the recipes they turned us onto are becoming staples of our everyday cooking and have literally changed the way we eat.
Another really helpful thing they did was show us tools that we can use to monitor our calorie and nutritional intake. This has been incredibly important because prior to using these tools we really had no idea how many calories we were really consuming and how our metabolisms affected our potential calorie intake. Once you see how much you are consuming it makes it much easier to make choices about what you're going to eat.
The best thing about this place is the staff. Every staff member we have dealt with there has been both exceptionally friendly and super supportive. That goes a long way towards keeping you motivated.
Overall we really can't recommend this clinic enough. If you want to lose weight in a serious and responsible way this is the place to go.
