What the options are, who decides what, and what it would involve. Coached from our studio on Highway 181 in Daphne.
Spanish Fort
Nobody can tell you how fast you will lose weight before meeting you, and any programme that quotes you a rate up front is quoting a marketing figure. What can be explained before you commit to anything is how the routes differ and what each one asks of you.
The practical difference is whether medical care is involved. One route coordinates our coaching with an independent licensed medical provider who evaluates suitability and makes every prescribing decision. The others involve no medication at all. We coach in all of them; we prescribe in none of them, and there is no Personal Edge clinic in Spanish Fort.
The other thing worth saying early: what tends to decide whether weight stays off is not the first few weeks. It is whether the habits are ones you would still be doing in a year, which is why the coaching covers nutrition, lifestyle and mindset rather than exercise alone.
Your options
A 16-week pathway coordinating our coaching with GLP-1-based medical weight-management care, for people an independent licensed provider determines are appropriate candidates. That provider handles evaluation, prescribing and monitoring. Medical visits and medication are charged separately, and coverage is not guaranteed.
A non-medication route, generally 16 weeks. Suited to people who would rather not use medication, or for whom it is not appropriate. Ask what the current programme includes before enrolling.
A further non-medication option. Its structure is something to ask us about directly rather than read here.

Common questions
No. Our two studios are in Mobile and Daphne. Spanish Fort clients train at Personal Edge Fitness Eastern Shore, on Highway 181 in Daphne.
One of the routes coordinates with independent medical care; the others involve no medication. Personal Edge Fitness provides coaching and coordination and does not prescribe.
Weight is one measure and a noisy one on its own. Body-composition assessment is available. Ask what is measured and how often, so you know before you start.
That is a common starting point, and the useful information is what ended each previous attempt. Bring that to the consultation — there is nothing to be embarrassed about in it.
No long-term client contracts. Thirty days' notice is required to discontinue.
Tell us your goal and where you are starting from. The initial consultation is complimentary, at our Daphne studio.
