Why Weight Loss Retreats are Better Then Gyms

So you made the great leap and joined your local gym so that you can maintain your shape or shed those unwanted winter pounds.

At first your friends supported you and even attended the gym to join your workout. Soon life’s obstacles started to happen. You found yourself eating free food at work, going on winter vacations and coming back larger then you were before you went. Your friends stopped going and there was no emotional support at the gym; just a line up for machines. The weight loss clinic you joined was not personalized enough and was to far from your gym. Feeling frustrated you even ventured the thought of plastic surgery but your friends all have gained their weight back. You found yourself on this never-ending cycle of battling weight.
