Make Those Calories Count
Most active women will lose weight eating 1,500 or fewer calories per day. For an average man, the daily calorie count needs to be below 2,000. Too many refined foods—often high in “empty” calories—can use up your calorie count without giving your body the nutrients it needs for optimal health. To make the most of your meals, keep these “best practices” in mind. read more

What people are saying about...WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
"With each and every baby, I never quite lost the weight I had gained, and after 3 kids, I've been trying to lose the same 20 pounds for the last ten years. I know quite a bit about nutrition and knew what I needed to do, but my busy life kept getting in the way of my efforts. I ate pretty well, but didn't have much control over my portions because I travel for work, which means I eat out a lot. I decided to try femMED Weight Management and couldn’t believe what it did for me. Besides not feeling hungry all the time, I had the focus and structure to eat until I just felt full… not stuffed! It’s truly a miracle product. I didn't realize it would be so easy once I got started! I'm already half way to my goal and it's been very motivating and rewarding. It gave me control over portions and I didn't even have to change the types of foods I like to eat. I could make my own food choices without having to stick to one of those regimented meal plans. Thanks for giving me a program I could stick with!"

Breast Thermography is an FDA approved (since 1982) radiation-free and compression-free procedure that images the breasts to aid in early risk assessment for breast cancer. The procedure is based on the scientific principle that chemical and blood vessel activity in both pre-cancerous tissue and the area surrounding a developing breast cancer is almost always higher than in the normal breast. read more
