The Duke Lifestyle and Weight Management Center offers a Duke employee discount for their OPTIFAST® Program.
Duke employees will receive $50 off the 12-week sign-up fee ($250) and $100 off the 24-week sign-up fee ($500). Must show valid Duke ID.
OPTIFAST® is a highly successful, multi-week (12 or 24 weeks) program that provides nutritionally complete soups, bars, and shakes and includes:
- Weekly Provider visits.
- Group support sessions led by the Duke Lifestyle & Weight Management Center's nutrition, behavioral health, fitness, or medical experts.
During weekly visits, your provider will monitor your vital signs and weight loss and look for any signs that might indicate a medical issue. Over time, your doctor will work with you to slowly reintroduce food into your diet as you reach your weight goal. Currently, this program is not covered by insurance, but consultations with your doctor or dietitian may be.
