Increase your impact on the world by empowering people to lose weight for good and keep it off with a clinically proven program from Medi-Weightloss. Breakthrough weight loss medications are one tool but people need a step-by-step plan, community, the right foods, recipes, products & supplements, as well as personalized guidance to safely achieve their wellness goals. Our system is proven and has delivered results to 420,000 patients who have lost over 9,000,000 pounds to date!

Will you join us in giving people hope and inspiring confidence with real results?

An alarming number of people are fighting their own bodies for control to achieve a healthy weight. Many of our franchise owners are people who initially went through our weight loss program or witnessed the transformation of a friend or colleague.

Known as “the one that works”, the Medi-Weightloss program offers people a chance to finally take the future of their health into their own hands and regain confidence by shedding weight without surgery or solely relying on medication to achieve their wellness goals.

There’s a reason that the weight loss industry grew to $90 billion dollars in 2023, and that’s because the number of overweight or obese people in America has significantly grown year over year to reach record levels. People who have tried to lose weight and failed are happy to pay for results, and that’s what keeps Medi-Weightloss clients in our ecosystem. They’re able to lose weight and maintain that weight loss.

There’s a growing market for people who want weight loss results right now

  • 74% of Adults are overweight (BMI 25-29) or obese (BMI >30)
  • 22% of Children 12-19 years old are obese (BMI >30)
  • Obesity is a disease that raises the risk of death 
  • It can trigger a range of chronic diseases such as hypertension, lipid disorders, Diabetes, heart disease, stroke, osteoarthritis, sleep apnea and cancer
  • Obesity adds an estimated $173 Billion in excess medical costs every year

With an increasing number of people focusing on their health, they’re taking action and investing in what’s most important to them - their bodies. This includes the weight-loss medications you see in the news, but expands to an increased demand for health, wellness, nutrition, appearance, sleep, and mindfulness products and services.

The Medi-Weightloss program is effective because we focus on the many human needs that accompany weight loss to deliver a new lifestyle.
