Obesity is a disease. There is a treatment.
Obesity is the fastest growing health problem in America. It affects nearly two-thirds of Americans and is the second leading cause of preventable death. The World Health Organization has described obesity as an “escalating epidemic” and “one of the greatest neglected health problems of our time.”
Reports published by the Centers for Disease Control and the Journal of the American Medical Association have indicated that:
- 2 out of 5 adults age 50-64 are obese
- 33.8% of Americans older than 20 are considered obese
- 73.7% of Americans are considered overweight or obese
- Solutions must be implemented for an effective and long-term program to lose weight
- Obesity costs $147 billion per year in related healthcare spending

Why Franchising?
Franchising has become a driving force in today's economy, offering proven business systems for entrepreneurs to deliver goods and services on a local level with the strength and operational precision of a national brand. Franchising combines the drive and ambition of independent business owners with the experience and expertise of a proven company. This partnership gives entrepreneurs the freedom of operating their own company, but the tools, support, and proven success of an existing Brand. The Franchisor provides initial training, oversees the franchise launch and grand opening, and provides ongoing marketing, IT, and operational support. The Franchisor has proprietary systems and procedures on operating the business to achieve maximum sales and profitability from day one.
