The Nest
Weight Management
Personalized Plans to Help You Reach Your Goals
The Nest is a safe space—a nurturing space—where you have a team to surround you with the support you need to succeed.
We know that achieving a healthy weight is a key component of improving your quality of life. And even though most of us have an idea of what we should be doing to reach those goals, getting started can be frankly overwhelming.
Yes, it is true that taking off pounds requires us to burn more calories than we consume. But the body is an amazingly complex system, and giving people the advice that “Losing weight is just calories-in minus calories-out” is far too simplistic! In fact, we don’t even want you to focus on losing weight or calorie counting.
Making the changes necessary to optimize your weight means that your focus will be on creating sustainable lifestyle changes. Though tracking what you eat from time to time is an important support tool to use during your journey, it is not a life-long habit that we want to instill in you. Our goal is meaningful change—not a quick fix.
The most important tool you will need for this journey is a good grasp of your Why. Knowing why you are ready to focus on your health and put in the (sometimes rather unpleasant) effort needed to make lifestyle changes that last will help you get there before you know it.
Unfortunately, most insurance companies don’t see the value in covering the cost of these services. That’s why we offer a unique blend of Direct Primary Care and Weight Management Services. We don’t simply write your prescriptions; we strive to give you comprehensive care to create a healthy lifestyle that lasts.
Our Weight Management Nest services are offered through video visits, phone calls, and messaging—whatever suits you best. We care for individuals anywhere in Texas or Arkansas.
This specialized service is included with monthly Nest membership, but is also available as a stand-alone program.
Weight management services include:
Nutrition counseling
Goal setting focused on health longevity. . . not just the scale
