MercyCare Weight Loss Program Testimonials

"You asked about what was most impactful ... I think the meal planning, even though it isn't followed 100%, at least we have an idea about what to buy and what to thaw out for the week. Another thing is we have really enjoyed eating breakfast together since we learned that it's best to get up at the same time everyday."

"My goal was to establish a healthier and sustainable lifestyle. I wanted to lose weight, but that was a hoped-for outcome of my goal."

"I liked the new ideas shared and the exercise routines that were sent out. I tried a few of them and are still using them today. Makes you believe you can get a workout in, even if you only have 10 or 20 minutes."

"I like that it focused on more than just weight. I enjoyed the nutrition and meal planning topics."

"It was good to hear new recipes."

Weight Loss Program

The Mercy Weight Loss Program 2.0 is available to all Mercy Employees for FREE and to community members for $115.

Discover weight loss with a new perspective. It’s not about cutting calories and hours of exercise. Class content aims to help you learn how to have balanced eating, to support metabolism and energy, craving control and insulin resistance, stress management, and movement for life. Find support with your online coach or a group of peers, with the goals of losing weight, feeling better and becoming more knowledgeable about your weight loss journey.

Comes with 1:1 support from a coach, information delivered each Monday and a requirement of turning in meal plans each week. You will begin the program with a 1:1 meeting with a certified wellness coach and then receive the rest of the information weekly via email. You will choose one other time throughout the 10 weeks to meet with the coach again and have weekly homework designed to help you create healthy habits for life.

In addition to structured coaching, we offer flexible support options to meet your unique needs throughout the program.
