We know you want to be thinner & healthier, but losing weight isn't easy and despite the promises weight-loss programs make, too many people find themselves dissappointed when they don't lose weight or gain back what they lost. Our medical team has dedicated their lives to helping people identify the root causes of obesity and treat them accordingly.
Our in-clinic Keep-It-Off program is a revolutionary medical approach to weight loss that will help you take control of your weight like never before. Here at The Hernried Center, we believe that being overweight is a complex, chronic medical problem that requires a medical solution. That's why we have refined our solution for over 30 years to bring together the most clinically informed and compassionate care possible.
Getting started is easy. Kudos to Marketa Leisure for being able to break the 30 lb mark so quickly on her weight loss journey with our program! Our team recognizes your hard work and determination!

Medically monitored very low calorie diet leads to fast weight loss. Meal replacements are tasty and the weekly classes provide wonderful ongoing support.

It works. The meal replacements are good and it has helped me jumpstart my diet. I really liked my nutritionist amanda, she was amazing. And so were my doctors.
My only con: I didnt feel that i needed the medical monitoring. I think it's only necessary for those who are overly heavy with health problems and I wasnt really willing to pay for the medical monitoring. I would suggest there'd be an option for those who just want to purchase meals and follow their diet plan.

This program works. It's a medically supervised very low calorie ketogenic diet. Absolutely no gimmicks. Dr. Hernried is a pioneer in this field and his staff of highly educated professionals, who teach the weekly classes that you must attend, are very well trained and very personable. I drive 3 hours, round-trip, ever week for mine. I follow the program like it's my religion, or my job, and I have lost 44 pounds in exactly 3 months. And I feel great I'm not hungry - because when in ketosis your body gets all the fuel it needs from its own fat stores, so blood-sugar levels remain very stable (it

I started my weight loss program about 6 weeks ago and already I have more energy, feel more clearheaded, and I've lost more than 10 pounds. My goal is to completely change my diet so that I can avoid becoming diabetic, take weight off to ease arthritis, and feel good again. The classes are interesting and educational and the food is good. I feel like I'm taking my life back.

The Hernried Center has literally changed my life and I cannot recommend it more highly to anyone struggling with a weight issue. In addition to shedding 70 pounds, I have gained a new outlook on nutrition and the foods I was eating. Their behaviorists are always supportive and I look forward to our weekly meetings. They share resources, articles and strategies for life challenges. Regaining control over a weight issue is not an easy task, but I do believe this is the best program possible for anyone who is struggling. The staff has always been kind, helpful and courteous. I have never felt uncomfortable

I have belonged to the program for over 15 yrs. Since reaching my goal weight I have continued in the Maintenance part of the program. During this period I have been able to keep off the 74 lbs I lost by checking in from time to time to purchase meal replacements when I have put on 5 lbs or more. I have returned to the full program to drop off a medically necessary weight amount pending hip/knee surgery. I am physically unable to perform any kind of physical activity making this loss a bit more difficult. I am being assisted by the most helpful and understanding staff members you good ask for.

I can't say enough about the entire crew at The Hernried Center. At one point in my life I hit over 375 pounds, something clicked and I knew I needed help. This is one of the programs offered through Sutter Health, so I came in to try it out. Positive health is a habit, not an event. It doesn't happen overnight. It took many weeks, months, and years for me to get to that top weight. With the help of The Hernried Center (and my assigned behaviorist, Tessa -- she rocks!) I lost over 160 pounds, dropping all the way to 214 after just 11 months in the program. No surgery, and really not all that difficult

I've been through a couple other programs. I'm always able to lose weight when I apply myself. The biggest difference I felt between the Hernried program from my previous experiences is that I had a lot more energy, and much less hunger while on Dr. Hernried's New Directions program. The medical monitoring gave me confidence to know I was staying healthy on the diet. I did my research beforehand and learned how important medical monitoring is while you're on a very low calorie diet. Then there's the superior education and support provided by the behaviorists. Other programs I've employed have only
