Your Health Coach

Your Mentor, Your Coach

We have mentors and coaches in every important area of our life—school, work, sports, skills. Why should weight loss be any different?


Your Personal Guide

Our professional Health Coaches are weight-loss mentors. Often, they have stood where you stand now, looking for a doable plan. They found it in Take Shape For Life and were so excited by the transformation it made in all areas that they become professional Health Coaches to help others lose weight and gain health.

Your Friend

A Health Coach does as much–or as little–as you need. He or she can cheer you on, motivate you, help you face challenges, show you the path to Optimal Health. Or your Health Coach can simply be a phone call away. You decide how much support you need.

Your Secret to Success

Research confirms that having a Health Coach can make all the difference in turning healthy behaviors into habits that last a lifetime. With the support of a weight-loss Coach, your chances for success are vastly improved.

A 2008 Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) study of 1,032 overweight and obese adults found that personal counseling and Web-based intervention strategies helped participants keep weight off for over three years.
