Guided Integration

The Program:
At FitPath™, I have heard time and time again from our guests about how great it would be if they could just take one of the guides home with them for a couple of months. They believed it would make it easier for them to stay on “the FitPath™”.

We took this to heart and in 2007, a pilot program was launched. The intention of the program was to provide support, motivation, as well as technical info in regards to nutrition, fitness, and lifestyle questions once our guests were back home. I was fortunate to be designated as the guide to deliver this program. Each week I would check in to discuss the challenges, successes, or to advise depending of the needs of the person I was calling. In essence, I became their “lifeline” back to FitPath™. And it made a tremendous difference in their success. It helped people stay on track for those initial months following their FitPath™ experience. It helped them to stay with their goals knowing I would be calling each week.  With these results encouraging us, I am pleased that we are continuing to offer the program now called “Guided Integration” (I still like calling it the “Lifeline” program). Our goal is your success.

Imagine having:

1. A Personal Guide to support, motivate, and encourage you upon your arrival home from FitPath™
2. A Guide who knows the program inside and out to answer your questions about nutrition, fitness, or other lifestyle questions
3.  A Guide to check in on your progress, to keep your focused on your goals
4.  A Guide to discuss strategies during challenging times

According to a study done at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, when solo dieters were compared to “teams” of dieters, after 10 months the latter (those in teams) were more likely to have maintained their weight loss (66% versus 24%). As you know, we don’t use the word “dieters” at FitPath™, as we believe in lifestyle changes not diets, but when quoting this study we let it sneak in. W want to be part of your team!

The Package:
If you decide to enroll in the program, you will have the opportunity to sit down for a one-on-one session with your “Guide” during your stay. Here you can discuss your goals and strategies to integrate new choices and patterns explored at FitPath into your current lifestyle. 

Your weekly check ins are set up either ahead of time or on a week to week basis (based on your availability as well as your Guide’s). A four week commitment is the minimum required by you. Over this four week period of time, you will have one contact per week with your Guide. Our definition of “contact” is one phone call per week (up to 1/2 hour in duration), as well as one email per week (answered within 48 hours).

Also included in this package is access to a weekly/daily diary via the Internet, created to assist you in planning and actualizing your daily and weekly goals.

The Personal Guides:
We have at FitPath, the best guides on the planet (yes, I am biased). It shows that they not only love and enjoy what they do but they practice to the best of their abilities the life they teach. More than willing to share their knowledge with you, they are quite fun to talk to as well. (Please inquire which guides are available for this program as it is based on their availability).

To better serve you, we have put to together options (or bundles) for you to design and purchase depending on your needs.
