Weight Loss Camp Before and After
Samantha lost 96lbs at Weight Crafters
"I initially signed up for 4 weeks, as I had a substantial amount of weight to lose and just was looking to get a head start on bettering myself and getting myself on track to start my career. I ended up staying much longer and have returned many times since I left for maintenance.
The trainers were fantastic, although there were other people in the training session I never felt neglected. The food was delicious and the staff was knowledgeable and attentive to everyone's varying needs.
I would recommend this weight loss camp for anyone no matter how much weight needed to be lost or how young or old. Very knowledgeable, professional, and caring team."

Why choose Weight Crafters over traditional fat camps?
Because you get the best for less and lose the most for the least!
Weight loss camps and fat camps typically offer a comprehensive approach to weight loss that may include structured exercise programs, healthy meal plans, group therapy or behavioral modification sessions, and educational workshops or classes.
The goal of these programs is not just to help individuals lose weight, but also to develop habits for maintaining a healthy weight and living a healthier lifestyle in the long-term.
Numerous "fat camp" styled programs have surfaced online in recent years. Some have been around for a long time, with solid management, credentials, and experience. However; many have none of those things. Knowing the right choice is sometimes difficult. We believe that at Weight Crafters, we make the choice very clear.
When you decide to attend a weight loss camp, ask yourself these questions:
- What do I want achieve?
- What kind of atmosphere am I looking for?
- How much do I want to risk on a program without a proven history of success?
Weight Crafters is the #1 rated weight loss retreat in America for several good reasons:
- A solid 15 year history as an award winning "boutique" weight loss camp program
- A pricing and options structure that beats out nearly all competitors
- A water-view accommodations setting in a beautiful hotel
- A purpose built fitness facility entirely dedicated to small groups of clients
- A place where you get to walk on beautiful beaches and experience lots of sunshine
- A well seasoned, experienced and empathetic staff
- A great meal plan without excessive calorie restrictions
- A fitness & nutritional system that is based on the United States Marine Corps weight loss & fitness model
- A practical and applicable approach to life coaching and encouragment
- A team that is dedicated to forming long lasting relationships with our clients and supporting them through their journey well beyond their stay in our wellness program

How does it work?
Weight Crafters combines small-group fitness activity and instruction with delicious healthy foods and a beautiful vacation setting. The program focuses on healthy habit building, so you can maintain your results when you return home.
A typical day consists of active (e.g., sports and fitness) and leisure time (e.g., nutrition, therapeutic massage, beach walks) as well as three properly portioned meals prepared by our team.
Exercise time is split into two sessions (morning and afternoon) and activities vary daily depending on your age, physical needs and the interests of the group. [1] Weight Crafters utilizes applicable practices that may be found at a military boot camp or a fat farm; so you will be working out, but not overworked. We also offer a variety of low-impact exercises [2] such as beach fitness routines, swimming and more.
We perform a "before" and "after" weigh-in, complete with body measurements and (optional) pictures, as well as a fitness assessment to help you track your progress.
Group nutritional and motivational coaching sessions are also optionally available, designed to help you learn skills and techniques to maintain a healthy lifestyle long term.

Are Fat Camps Effective?
The simple answer is yes. All legitimate weight loss camps use a combination of activity and diet to achieve fast weight loss results. If that's all you care about, there are plenty of options to choose from.
The more accurate answer, is that diet and exercise alone are only part of a long term solution. For long lasting results that will make you feel genuinely healthier for years to come, you need several more ingredients.
At Weight Crafters, we provide consistent nourishment while maintaining constructive calorie goals. Our structured program helps you build a foundation of healthy lifestyle habits.
The exercise routines at Weight Crafters will help you feel stronger, more agile, and more capable. Our experienced and compassionate team will help you push past your fears, doubts, and boundaries.
At Weight Crafters, we believe we are the best weight loss camp for adults because we don't just help you lose weight - we help you live a healthier life!
What happens at Weight Loss Camp?
Weight Loss Camps or Fat Farms are typically residential retreats where people struggling to get fit or lose weight come to obtain their weight loss and fitness goals, and do so in an environment that reduces their everyday stress.
At Weight Crafters, our program is designed for adults of all ages and fitness levels to include obese and senior clientele. By setting up an environment that allows people to get away from their everyday routine and focus entirely on losing weight, improving strength, mobility, energy levels and over-all health, we have been able to help our clients achieve great results and turn a new leaf towards a healthier lifestyle.
The combination of our healthy meals, exercises, calorie intake monitoring and focus on overall wellness serve to achieve a maintainable weight loss and fitness regiment. At Weight Crafters, our #1 priority is helping our clients form habits and behaviors that are life-changing and sustainable.
How much does it cost to attend the Weight Crafters Weight Loss Camp?
At the Weight Crafters Camp you will find some of the most reasonable and in most cases, the lowest rates in the industry. The costs to attend our programs range from $2,499 per week to as high as $3,499 (depending on Seasonal Rates, Specials, Applicable Discounts, Length of Stay and Chosen Options) and we provide all-inclusive rates - There are no hidden fees or charges in our pricing that are not listed on our site.
How much weight can you lose at weight loss camp?
This question, when isolated to that one specific point, is often asked inappropriately because it only focuses on one outcome and not on the reality of what the goals of a fat camp program actually are. Weight loss during your stay is not the number one priority of any legitimate program that understands fitness, nutrition and overall wellness. The appropriate questions to ask are:
- How much body fat can I reduce over a period of time?
- How much lean muscle can I build over a period of time?
- How many inches of mass can I deduct over a period of time?
- How much inflammation can I reduce over a period of time?
- How much can I improve my cardio, my strength, my endurance, my flexibility and mobility over a period of time?
- How much weight can be lost over a period of time?
- Will I be able to maintain my progress when I return home?
- Etc.
The focus is not just on losing weight at the program, but to build the skills, knowledge, discipline and will to live a healthy and fit lifestyle when you leave the weight loss camp program. Each person is different and so their results will be different. In most cases, the determination of the client and their ability to work hard and focus is the main factor. In other cases, they may be limited by hormonal issues, physical limitations or emotional disorders.
The focus here at Weight Crafters is to provide the tools, the education and the support to accomplish your goals.
No program can tell you with certainty what your outcome will be - and if they imply that they can, then you probably want to move on to the next place, in our humble opinion.

Does weight loss camp work better for men or women?
Gender does play a role in your journey to a healthier weight - but the differences equal out over time. Studies have shown that men typically lose more weight in the first few weeks after starting a weight loss program. Over the longer term however, women will generally catch up. [3]
This is why it's crucially important that you think of your time at weight-loss camp as a jump start, rather than a quick fix. The habits, strength and motivation you build while you're here are going to keep you moving forward towards your goals in the coming months after you return home.
Am I too old to exercise and lose weight?
If you're over 50, you may have noticed that staying in shape brings new challenges. This is completely normal - but it's no reason to quit! On the contrary - maintaining a healthy weight and staying regularly active are the most powerful tools you have to limit the effects of age, and give yourself more years of quality time ahead. [4]
At Weight Crafters, our team has the knowledge and experience to help you safely and quickly increase strength, improve mobility, shed excess fat and feel more energetic.

Is Weight Crafters Weight Loss Camp like boot camp in the military?

Am I too out of shape to participate?
The goal of a fat camp styled program is to help guests dealing with overweight or obesity challenges lose weight, raise their self-confidence, self esteem and self-image, and teach them healthy life skills and choices. [5] Generally speaking, we are here specifically to help out-of-shape people improve their health. Our team has the training and experience to assist clients with various physical limitation if need be.
This being said, there are certain health conditions which could prevent you from attending our program - or any residential weight loss program. If you have concerns, we welcome you to reach out and talk them over with us.
Is this like The Biggest Loser?
No. The Biggest Loser Television program was made for TV. In no way does it reflect the reality of how fully licensed and professional Weight Loss Camps work or operate.
Will I be hungry at weight loss camp?
A common misconception about Weight Loss Camp programs is that you'll spend 10 hours per day on a treadmill and be rewarded with tiny, bland meals that leave you starving. Nothing could be further from the truth!
At Weight Crafters, you'll be eating substantial meals and snacks every day, prepared for you by our team. By choosing healthy ingredients and preparing delicious recipes, we make sure you feel satisfied while getting the proper portions for sustainable fitness activity and net weight reduction.
Can I really reverse diabetes by losing weight, or is that a myth?
The truth is, it depends. For most people recently diagnosed, type 2 diabetes can be reversed with significant weight loss. Your chances of full remission however, will vary depending on how long you've been diabetic and whether you can maintain a healthy body weight long-term.
The key to type 2 diabetes is your personal fat threshold - that is, the amount of fat your body can handle before insulin production begins to diminish. New research has shown that recently-diagnosed type 2 diabetics can experience a success rate of up to 90% in reversing the disease [6] if they lose enough weight to allow their insulin-producing beta cells to recover and begin functioning properly - but that weight loss must be maintained, or the disease will immediately re-surface.

In a nutshell, maintaining a healthy weight offers the following benefits:
- Slowing or preventing the onset of Type 2 Diabetes
- Improvement in Hypertension (high blood pressure)
- Improved cardiovascular health
- Reduced joint pain and increased mobility
Weight loss is the main treatment for obesity.
There is substantial evidence that a 7-10% weight loss can prevent progression from pre-diabetes to type 2 diabetes. A 5-15% weight reduction can also manage cardiovascular risk for diabetics. And even a 10% reduction in weight can in some cases reverse Type 2 Diabetes into full remission. [7]
Health risks are reduced, [8] fitness is improved, [9] and diabetes may be delayed with weight loss in overweight or obese people. People with osteoarthritis of the knee may benefit from it since it can reduce pain and increase mobility. Hypertension can decrease with weight loss.
Depression, stress, or boredom may contribute to weight gain, [10] and if this is the case, individuals are encouraged to seek medical attention. According to a 2010 study, dieters who had a full night's sleep lost twice as much weight as those with inadequate sleep. [11]
Over the long term, most dieters regain weight. [12] The Dietary Guidelines for Americans state that those who achieve and manage a healthy weight successfully do so by carefully consuming only the necessary number of calories and being physically active. [13]
Adopting a diet in which you consume fewer calories than you burn helps you lose weight. [14] Dietary and lifestyle changes must be permanent however, to make weight loss permanent. Counseling and exercise by themselves do not result in weight loss. Dieting alone can result in weight loss, but only combining diet with exercise provides the best results. [15]
