Chicago, IL (PRWEB) November 13, 2012

(November 13, 2012) ? Retrofit, the expert-led, data-driven weight loss program for busy professionals, is solidifying its commitment to reduce skyrocketing healthcare costs for corporate America. The highly successful weight loss company is giving away up to $ 300,000 in free services to transform and revitalize one lucky company selected in the groundbreaking ?Retrofit My Company? contest.

?Employers incur an average of almost $ 1,500 a year in additional healthcare expenses for each overweight employee,? said Retrofit CEO Jeff Hyman. ?Such high costs drain companies of money that could otherwise be invested in growth, new products, and hiring. Retrofit is awarding its program to one company, which will reap the health benefits of weight loss at no charge.?

Retrofit also announced today that it has raised $ 8 million in a Series A financing led by Draper Fisher Jurvetson (DFJ). This brings the total investment in Retrofit to $ 10.7 million, including funding from Correlation Ventures, Hyde Park Angels, New World Ventures, and I2A Fund.

DFJ believes in data-driven weight loss as a massive market opportunity and investing in emerging trends before they become mainstream.

?The office is a great place to drive participation in the Retrofit program, and it can have a profound impact on reducing healthcare costs for corporate America,? said Mohanjit Jolly, DFJ Managing Director. ?I've experienced the power of this program first-hand in my own office, as a couple of my colleagues have joined the program and we support each other through healthy competition."

More than 90% of Retrofit clients are losing weight on the innovative program that uses the latest technology in wireless tracking devices along with highly-trained wellness experts. Each client consults with a registered dietitian, exercise physiologist, and behavior coach via Skype? videoconferencing. Retrofit has 80 full-time and part-time employees nationwide.

Two-thirds of Americans are overweight, and costly related health conditions, including cardiovascular disease and Type 2 diabetes, are soaring. According to a Duke University study, the combined estimated value of medical expenditures, absenteeism, and reduced productivity resulting from overweight full-time employees is $ 73.1 billion per year.

The Retrofit My Company contest aims to help turn the tide on America?s obesity epidemic. Retrofit wellness experts, who teach sustainable behavior change through private lessons, will spend a year transforming the winning company into a healthy and energized workplace.

?With the Retrofit program, a wide range of our employees were excited to take part in losing weight alongside their co-workers. The strong appeal of this program, with its wireless devices and private one-on-one expert support, led over 100 of our employees to join Retrofit,? said Donna Jennings, Senior Vice President of Human Resources of DeVry University. ?Results have been very positive with over 90% of our employees losing weight. More importantly, our organization is becoming more wellness-oriented. Enabling both the organization changes and the individual transformations is incredibly rewarding.?

Retrofit delivers personalized weight loss programs to consumers and corporate clients including: Dolby, Oreck, Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Millenium Pharmacy Systems, and more.

The ?Retrofit My Company? Contest launches on November 13, 2012 at 12:00 AM (CST) and closes on December 12, 2012 at 11:59 PM (CST). Qualifying entrants simply submit a 500-word essay describing why they should win a free year of weight loss for up to 100 co-workers at RetrofitMyCompany.com. The Grand Prize winner will be announced January 2, 2013.

Prominent judges for the Retrofit My Company contest include: J.B. Pritzker, Managing Partner of The Pritzker Group; Larry Levy, CEO of Levy Organization; Bruce Cazenave, CEO of Nautilus Inc.; Wayne Cooper, Publisher and Chairman of Chief Executive Group; Jeffrey Yordon, CEO and President, Sagent Pharmaceuticals; and Dr. Holly Wyatt, Clinical Researcher at The Center for Human Nutrition.

Miami, FL (PRWEB) October 24, 2012

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans reveals the truth about hCG drops, pellets and sprays that are marketed at drugstores and General Nutrition Centers. These homeopathic weight loss products that contain less that 0.01% hCG do not trigger any weight loss.

hCGTreatments /Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans offers pure prescription hCG treatments, and reveals the truth about homeopathic weight loss products that contain less that 0.01% hCG. Marketed at drugstores and General Nutrition Centers, over the counter hCG drops, pellets and sprays are absolutely ineffective in producing any weight loss. In a recent announcement, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that formulations with less than 0.01% HCG are not true homeopathic remedies. According to the FDA, these drops are not recognized in the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia, which makes them an unapproved drug. Thus sanctioned by the FDA. Prescription hCG that is administered by hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans as a part of their weight loss program is extremely different from over the counter homeopathic hCG drops. FDA sanctioned over the counter homeopathic hCG drops do not contain enough hCG to even be considered homeopathic according to the FDA.

100% prescription hCG from hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans is available via Diet Doc's in house physicians who evaluate new clients and if fast weight loss is needed, provide a prescription. Prescription hCG, unlike homeopathic contains 99.99% pure hCG and can never be bought online or in stores. Unlike homeopathic hCG drops that do not have any measurable amounts of hCG in them, hCG drops containing pharmaceutical grade hCG can be obtained only after consulting a doctor at hCG from hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans who carries out a careful and thorough assessment of a person?s health conditions, age, gender, lifestyle and preferences. Homeopathic and prescription hCG drops are extremely different in their delivery mechanism, safety, and effectiveness. The medically supervised weight loss program from hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans triggers weight loss by incorporating daily doses of prescription hCG, available in either sublingual hCG drops, hCG oral tablets, or injections. Diet Doc's hCG diet plan includes a low calorie diet to not only promote abnormal fat loss (of at least a pound a day) at a rapid pace but it also helps dieters avoid any side effects of an outdated hCG diet protocol that other purveyors provide.

This modern day version of the old hCG diet that has been designed by hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet and Weight Loss Plans is a clinically superior weight loss program that has been specifically designed to help people fight the global epidemic of obesity. By using only prescription hCG that is sourced from a licensed pharmacy in USA in their hCG drops and the other modes of delivery such as pills and injections, Diet Doc is helping all of their patients shed those excess pounds quickly and safely.

Jackson, FL (PRWEB) September 25, 2012

Physician prescribed hCG has been clinically proven to enact fast weight loss in over 97% of patients. There is still some confusion however between prescription hCG and homeopathic, ineffective hCG that has been sanctioned by the FDA. The FDA released this news recently, adding that prescription hCG is FDA approved for infertility treatment and other medical conditions. http://www.fda.gov/NewsEvents/Newsroom/PressAnnouncements/ucm282334.htm But many news outlets still lump physician prescribed, 99.99% hCG treatments with the ineffectual homeopathic, over-the-counter hCG. The truth is that there is a world of difference between the two, yet many news outlets publically defame prescription hCG treatments, unaware of this fundamental difference. hCGTreatments / Diet Doc Weight Loss Plans thus announces a clinically superior weight loss solution to ineffective homeopathic hCG. Prescription hCG has been clinically proven to be effective in weight loss, while homeopathic hCG has no clinical evidence in support of it, and has actually been pulled from shelves. Prescription, 99.99% pure hCG has been proven by its discoverer, Dr. A.T.W. Simeons in the 1954, who scientifically concluded http://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=8y6MAv8o6dcC&oi=fnd&pg=PA1866&dq=A.T.W.+Simeons+&ots=WqOCS_tRM5&sig=C7KusFQVtMqWlCBxYjH2SoFfLOg that "hCG is also said to break down body fat, causing rapid weight loss by mass, simultaneously protecting the endogenous fat and muscle?" and then later by Dr. Guzman who called the hCG diet http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/22/6/686.short "the most productive and safe approach to the best weight loss."

The Huffington post says about homeopathic hCG, "Many doctors view homeopathic remedies as ineffective but mostly harmless because the drugs in them are present in such tiny amounts." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/12/06/weight-loss-placenta-fda-remedy-hcg_n_1132296.html This is at the core of the fundamental difference between homeopathic hCG, sold illegally and widely regarded as ineffective, and physician prescribed hCG. Prescription hCG is 99.99% pure hCG, making it the most effective and fast weight loss prescription available, while homeopathic hCG contains almost no hCG, rendering it ineffective. The purity level of prescription hCG is what makes it effective, while the lack thereof is the reason that homeopathic hCG does not work, and has been largely pulled from the market by the FDA. The reason that prescription hCG is effective as a fast weight loss aid is because it enables the dieter to preserve muscle and water, while triggering the hypothalamus to release fat stores in the most fat-rich areas of the body like thighs, midsection, underarms, and hips.

hCGTreatments / Diet Doc Weight Loss Plans announces an individualized hCG weight loss diet, guaranteed to facilitate extremely fast weight loss in 97% of patients; a guaranteed obesity treatment. An individualized, physician prescribed and monitored hCG weight loss diet from hCGTreatments / Diet Doc has been proven to produce fast weight loss at an average of 30 pounds in 30 days. Diet Doc only uses prescription hCG, available in the form of injections and sublingual tablets, and now new highly concentrated sublingual drops. These new hCG drops are Diet Doc has further modernized the original 1950's hCG diet, which allows for dieters to stay on the program longer without any metabolic slowdown and minimal hormonal sensitization, two drawbacks of the original Simeons protocol. All of Diet Doc's patients first consult with licensed doctors who are specially trained to individualize and prescribe hCG. Diet Doc provides unlimited clinical support and is the only doctor supervised, modernized version of the hCG diet, allowing clients to consume up to 1200 calories daily, a generous increase from the original 500 calorie diet.
