The ILWM ExperienceAt ILWM Residential, we recognize that providing you with a positive experience while on-site is not enough. It has to be more than just a good experience. It must be a ‘life-altering’ one. ‘Life-altering’ experiences can only occur when you are engaged on an emotional, physical, intellectual and sometimes even spiritual level. In other words, in order for experience to be ‘life-altering,’ it must be one that is inherently personal. ILWM differs from other residential weight loss programs in the fact that our program is deeply personal. We believe that the level of satisfaction our residential participants have with our program directly correlates to the level of personalization they receive while at ILWM. The ILWM Residential Weight Loss Program Provides a much Richer Experience than Other Residential Programs.A Deeply Personal Experience People typically attend residential weight loss programs to do one thing: to get results and get them quicker than if they were at home. For many, this means to lose as much weight as possible. For others, this means to find out as much about themselves so they can better control their binge eating, learn how to manage their diabetes, or learn how to be an effective emotional eater and so on. To achieve these types of rapid results, the participants must have access to a variety of health and wellness experts who work together to develop a comprehensive program and aftercare plan, then work daily with the participant to implement the program and integrate it into daily life. Most residential weight loss programs, although certainly not all, claim to offer an integrated comprehensive approach to weight loss. However, this usually means that during a participant’s stay they are briefly exposed to health care providers (physicians, dietitians, psychologists, etc.) who slightly modify an “off-the-shelf” standard program. The typical program will give you just that—exposure to these caregivers and a standardized program. One-on-one “exposure” to the doctor, dietitian, or exercise physiologist may occur only one to two times a week at other residential centers. At the end of the day, you could make a significant investment in a program that was supposed to be customized to meet your needs, only to find out that it was the exact opposite. Standardization and limited face time with providers is primarily a component of one thing—the high number of participants in the program. Some residential programs bring in 50 to 100, or even more, participants per month. These large numbers make personalization almost impossible. ILWM Residential only allows 10 participants at one time. This guarantees that the participants receive the personalized attention and emotional support needed for success. The Importance of Maximum Exposure

Nutrition Create-Your-Own-Program Just as you are a unique individual with a unique set of motivators, experiences, fears, and preferences, the program designed for you should reflect this individuality to be the most effective. The ILWM program allocates significant time and effort to ensure that the program we design for you is exactly what you need to be successful, and not an “everything for everyone” type of boilerplate program. Our staff will work in depth with you to design, implement, and modify as necessary, a custom roadmap to long-term weight loss that is both personal and realistic. You will learn valuable self-knowledge as well as internalize a path to better health. Your reasons for overeating and weight gain are as unique as your fingerprints. Your diet program should account for your individuality and needs in order to maximize your likelihood of long-term success. |
