We’re in this together.

You’re not just another “body” at Dr. Lara’s Center for Weight Management.  We are devoted to ensuring you lose the weight while gaining the tools and skills necessary to get to your healthiest and happiest life possible, and keeping you there!  Our friendly, fun, and supportive staff will help you design a program that works for you. As your needs change, so will your program.

Feed your mind, lose your weight forever.

Dr. Lara understands that education is the key to achieving a healthy and victorious weight loss.  You’ll be taught to understand the true meaning of “success” in weight loss by being shown the harmful and counterproductive effects of fad diets and weight loss myths.  Dr. Lara believes that with proper support, success is sure to follow.  That’s why his program offers individual counseling and/or group classes, web support, and recipes and meal ideas to satisfy your cravings without compromising you health.

We help you lose weight by controlling the things that make weight loss difficult.

We use FDA approved medications and supplements to eliminate and/or significantly reduce the feeling of hunger pains, food cravings, feeling tired, eating when stressed, and eating unconsciously.
