In the first stage of your weight loss journey with us at The Weigh Station, our team will coach you through nutrition. We recognize this part of your program can be the most challenging, as the majority of our patients have to cut out many foods they used to consume daily. We strive to make your weight loss convenience and hassle free by providing you with easy to make recipes that help good eating habits stick! Explore our simple ideas during Stage 1 of your program to learn where to get started with your nutrition.

We enlighten your taste buds in Stage 2 with a variety of meals from breakfast, soups, vegetables and salads, red meat, poultry, appetizers and even desserts! Yes, you can still eat dessert when participating in The Weigh Station’s weight loss programs. That doesn’t mean it is a free for all—our team will teach you how to satisfy that sweet tooth without overdoing it so you can stay on track with your weight loss goals!

Your journey with us doesn’t end when you’ve reached your weight loss and wellness goals. Once you’ve completed your weight loss program, you enter The Weigh Station’s maintenance phase. At The Weigh Station, we pride ourselves on making sure you maintain your new, healthy lifestyle for years to come! Our plethora of maintenance recipes help guarantee you do not fall back into poor lifestyle habits and gain the weight back. We do this by also offering free accountability check-ins to make it easy for you to stay the course.

At The Weigh Station, we never want our patients to feel overwhelmed with their nutritional choices. You are always welcome to ask our team any questions you may have, and we invite you to visit our substitution page to explore options for healthier food choices! In order to lose weight, you have to burn more calories than you consume, which means getting creative with your meals. For example, we encourage you to swap out starchy, calorie dense foods like mashed potatoes with healthier alternatives such as cauliflower mashed potatoes. Find more suggestions like this on our food substitutions page!

The holidays can be a difficult time to avoid over-indulging in fattening foods. Plus, well-meaning family and relatives can say or bring meals that are extra tempting. At The Weigh Station, we help our patients navigate Thanksgiving and Christmas with confidence through our special menu. Here you will find delicious holiday cuisines that come with zero guilt! We introduce tasty air fryer meals and even ways to eat pizza without falling off the wagon.

Many store bought dips and dressings get a bad rap. This is because many of these store bought products tend to contain preservatives and ingredients that make items last longer but are not healthy. Instead of grabbing one off the shelf at your local grocery store, we provide you with dips and dressings that are easy to whip together. From delicious salad dressings to compliment your meal like cilantro avocado to dips like the hot chicken and artichoke dip, you’ll discover eating healthy doesn’t have to be boring! We also provide our client with easy to make condiments and dry rubs such as bbq dry rub, basil pesto and wild mushroom turkey gravy. We turn bland eating into delectable dishes with these quick recipes. Most of them can be put together in just a few minutes!

Knowing what to eat before and after your workout is key to seeing results. These recipes include foods to eat before you exercise, as well as when to eat them. Studies show that eating carbohydrates before you workout may help you perform better. This is because carbohydrates are your main source of energy. The more energy you have, the longer you are able to exercise and at a higher intensity, therefore burning more calories. This doesn’t mean you should eat a bowl of pasta before hitting the gym.
