What Makes This Different
Acceptance-based Behavioral Therapy (ABT) is not a diet plan — it’s a structured, evidence-based approach addressing why weight loss programs typically fail long-term. EMS supports muscle toning alongside the program, not as a stand-alone weight-loss mechanism.
Who This Is For
- Anyone who’s lost weight before and regained it
- People who find restrictive diets unsustainable
- Anyone wanting dietician-led support with physical toning alongside
This program is not medical weight loss or bariatric care. For GLP-1 medications or bariatric surgery, that’s a different, physician-led pathway.
How It Works
- Initial consultation with a nutritionist/dietician
- 24 ABT sessions — twice weekly for the first 4 weeks, then biweekly
- EMS sessions — once or twice weekly alongside, depending on your plan
- Ongoing review focused on maintenance, not just initial loss

What is ABT?
A dietician-delivered, clinically studied behavioral approach — developed and studied in academic settings including at Drexel University.
Is it the same as a diet plan?
No — it addresses habits and environment, typically alongside a personalized nutrition plan.
How many sessions?
24 ABT sessions (twice weekly weeks 1–4, then biweekly); EMS once or twice weekly alongside.
How is this different from typical programs?
Published research shows ABT-style programs are specifically studied for less weight regain after treatment ends, even where initial loss is comparable.
What does EMS have to do with weight loss?
It supports muscle toning and lean mass, not a weight-loss mechanism on its own.
Suitable for Ozempic/Mounjaro users?
This is a behavioral/lifestyle program, not a medical weight-loss or prescription pathway.
