With summer on the horizon, many individuals are seeking out weight loss plans to achieve fast and noticeable results. Not all programs are created equal, however. The team from Nebraska Weight Management Institute knows some clients have already tried many of the age-old techniques for dropping pounds. What they need instead is a powerful and proven approach for slimming down. If you live in the Lincoln or Omaha area, you’re in luck; the incredible OPTIFAST® plan is available to help you shed pounds.

Unlike traditional weight loss plans, OPTIFAST takes the guesswork out of eating well by giving you simple yet effective strategies for every meal. Here are a few of the plan’s principles you can begin implementing right away to start seeing summer-ready results:

• Nix Alcohol: Not only is alcohol typically high in calories and sugar, but being under the influence may cause you to make unhealthy diet choices. If quick weight loss is your goal, take a break from alcohol — at least until you reach your target weight. If you still want to indulge here and there, limit your intake and sip a full glass of water in between drinks.
• Enjoy Food-Free Gatherings: Now that warmer weather is here, there are plenty of food-free ways to spend time with your favorite people. Enjoy a hike with your family, or swap weekend brunch with your bestie for a bicycle ride. By limiting the amount of time you spend dining out, you’ll be more inclined to stick with your weight loss plan.
• Bring Your OPTIFAST Choice: If there’s a spring or summer get-together you simply can’t forego, consider giving the host a heads-up to let them know you’ll be bringing your own meal. Doing so will allow you to stay on track and avoid loading up on empty calories.

If you want to see results in time for summer, now is the time to begin your OPTIFAST weight loss plan.
