 Mission Statement:The Victory Institute for Weight Management is dedicated to providing highly qualified and motivated medical professionals to assist individuals in need of medically supervised weight loss so that their lives will be positively impacted. Vision Statement:The vision of the Victory Institute for Weight Management is a healthier community, both mentally and physically, through the members of the company and those they interact. More Than Just Words!At the Victory Institute, our mission and vision statements are more than just words. They are the foundation from which we have built every aspect of our clinic from the development of our multidisciplinary team of highly trained professionals right through to the selection of products, resources, and programs that we use to improve your life. Why Our Programs WorkVictory Institute programs are based on years of research and medical validation. We focus on you, not on your weightAll of our programs consist of the following core components: Medical MonitoringOngoing medical monitoring assures that you remain in peak health, and that the doses of any medications you are taking and/or the calorie level of your diet are adjusted as you lose weight. Medical monitoring includes:
Our medical staff receive ongoing training in the latest health issues related to obesity and weight management. This training, along with the the vast bariatric support network that is available to us, ensures that your treatment is always medically appropriate and scientifically validated. Lifestyle EducationLong-term weight loss success is based on changing aspects of your lifestyle that have contributed to you being overweight. Lifestyle change is critical to your success and without it, most weight loss is only temporary. This explains the appalling weight loss success rates that are seen throughout this country where the majority of people attempt weight management through diet alone. The Victory Institute provides you with everything you need to make reasonable and sustainable change in your life. The education program that we use was developed in consultation with some of the world's leading experts and has been continually updated to reflect the changes in weight management trends over the last 25 years. Education modules are presented during weekly education and support meetings and cover over 60 topics in behavior, nutrition, and activity related issues. Examples of education topics are:
Combine these high quality education resources with the wealth of experience provided by our group facilitators, and you have one of the most powerful an effective lifestyle change programs available anywhere. Personal SupportYour weight management success is our priority. There is never a reason for you to feel alone as you make the lifestyle changes and learn the skills necessary to live a healthier, happier life. All of our custom treatment programs include a variety of support plans that have been demonstrated through years of experience and medical studies to be critical for losing weight and keeping it off. Individual SupportOur medical team is always available to answer your questions or deal with any issues that may arise related to your weight loss program. Individual support may include private counseling sessions with a nutritionist or lifestyle counselor as well as visits with one of our physicians for medical evaluation and monitoring. Active SupportThroughout the active weight loss phase of your program, you will attend small group education and support sessions where you will learn the skills and receive the tools necessary for success. During these sessions there is ample time for you to learn from the experience of other individuals who are experiencing similar issues that you are as you progress through the program. Continuing SupportResearch has clearly shown that a critical element of long-term weight loss success is your continued involvement with a support group after the active weight loss phase is complete. All support groups are facilitated by experienced and qualified medical professionals to ensure that the highest standards of education, privacy, and effectiveness are maintained. Getting StartedWhen you contact us, we will invite you to an information session, where we will review with you in greater detail our program options, schedules, and all of the costs.
