FAQs

No! There is no commitment made about the amount of weight you lose. The only commitment is the one you make to yourself, and our job is to guide and support you along the way. At your first appointment your coach will ask you if you have a goal in mind, as most people do. Some people have an idea of what weight they are aiming for, whether it be their pre-pregnancy weight, wedding day weight, or their college weight. For many, it’s reducing weight to reduce medication and reclaim their health. Everyone’s story is different.

Vital Body administers a doctor designed weight loss protocol called Ideal Protein. This protocol is based on the physiological principles of the body that allow our clients to lose weight safely, and then learn to maintain that weight loss long-term. Our program has three phases:

Phase 1 is designed to successfully lose excess weight. We also teach you how to transition from weight loss, to our stabilizing Phase 2.

Phase 2 is an 8-24 week program that will stabilize your body at your new weight, and ensure your long-term success. You learn how to introduce all food groups into your diet in a sustainable, and healthy way.

Phase 3 is what we call Maintenance and Lifestyle. It’s less glamorous as there’s no huge transformation or weight loss at this point, but this is the phase where you enjoy your success, and feel truly awesome. The accountability and support of our coaches in this phase lets you dig deep into healthy habits, self-care, planning, and recipes that will work for you according to your unique macro code.

An important component of the protocol is education. As you lose weight, you are also learning the skills and habits needed to create a new lifestyle. Building a new healthy lifestyle, and learning to maintain your new weight long after the weight loss phase is our main priority at Vital Body.

Our weight loss program is highly personalized to each individual, but typically, you will be eating a mix of your own prepared foods–vegetables and lean protein–in combination with our Ideal Protein foods.

There are over 60 foods to choose from to suit everyone’s tastes and preferences. Some of our foods require preparation and others are designed for those with busy lifestyles, so that you can carry foods on-the-go. Our foods are high quality protein-based foods that give your body what it needs to feel good on the program, without the high carbohydrate content that can hinder weight loss. These foods are only required for the duration of your weight loss phase but are encouraged in your maintenance phase as healthy snack options!

Many people are surprised to discover that our recommended exercise is limited to walking and stretching and some light resistance training while in the weight loss phase of our program. A lot of people believe that rigorous exercise is needed to lose weight, but that’s just not true! If you already have a routine you love, discuss with your coach how we can incorporate it into your program.

This might seem strange at first, but it’s important to note that our medical protocol is designed to help you lose weight without starvation or excessive hunger, and generate successful fat loss without compromising your lean muscle mass.

A lot of people are concerned they won’t have enough time to follow this program. But we know what happens to our health and wellbeing when we don’t prioritize it…this is often why our clients end up with excessive weight and unhealthy eating patterns in the first place.

Adopting new habits and a new way of living and eating will take some time, but it’s time well spent. This program helps you put yourself first, and realize that your health and happiness is worth the time investment.

Vital Body gives you a structured and easy to follow program, so that you save time on wondering what or when to eat, and simply follow your unique personalized plan.

Traveling while on the plan is possible, and many clients have had continued success while traveling. Your weekly check in with a coach will only take 15 minutes, making it very easy to squeeze into jam-packed schedules.

Since everyone has a different amount of weight to lose, our pricing is based on weekly participation. Our weight loss protocol is amazing, but what creates your long-term success is our coaching. The coaching and program management fee is billed every 4 weeks, and the fee includes your Personal Coaching sessions, access to the Ideal Protein app, and all your Ideal Protein Foods shipped straight to your door.

Phase 1: $157/week

Phase 2: $114/week

Phase 3: $43.74/week

Most of our clients report saving money on our weight loss and wellness program because they are eliminating expensive bills from eating out. This program is unlikely to cost much more than what you currently spend on food.

In January of 2023 I had reached the highest weight ever, 5'2" and 188 pounds. After being awake for about 2 hours, I was ready to go back to bed. I knew I had to do something so I set out to look for a program that was easy, fast, and included accountability. I set up a meeting with Theresa-Marie Rousseau, a certified Ideal Protein Coach at my local Pharmasave. That was the best thing I could have done for my health. I found the program easy to follow and fast. The first week I lost 3.6 pounds and the second week I lost 3.6 pounds. I was amazed. The weight loss continued steadily and by August I had lost 36.4 lbs. I continue to maintain my weight loss to date. I contribute my success to my excellent coach Theresa-Marie. She inspired me and kept me accountable. She was the right balance of toughness and support which is what I needed. I could be pretty negative and stubborn but respectfully she didn't let me get away with selling out on myself. I learned valuable information about my relationship to food. When times were tough she gave me a quote that became my mantra "You haven't come this far to only go this far." I feel so good about how I look and feel. I'm so thankful. Do yourself a favour and don't wait. Join now.

Life changing for me! I joined in January 2023. I am a woman in my fifties and I had 20 lbs to lose. I was skeptical yet hopeful. 8 weeks later, I not only had my 20lbs off but my life was transformed. I maintained my goal weight for the last year! I could go on for hours because that’s how much my life changed! Thank you to Zan & her amazing team!!

I am a repeat customer of Vital Body. The program has been updated and I find it easier to understand and put into practice. Or maybe I was just really ready this time. 🙂 I lost almost 18 pounds in about 3 months! Just as important, my joints hurt way less, I'm less fatigued and the brain fog has lifted. My coach, Em, has been super encouraging and I appreciate the weekly coaching structure, as it keeps me accountable while I build new habits, like making a week's worth of breakfasts at the start of each week. If you want to lose weight, feel better and be well supported along the way, sign up for the Vital Body today.

I have been working with Zan and Em at Vital Body since the end of May 2023. I have lost 45 pounds and 45 inches in 4.5 months. I have a busy lifestyle, and wanted a program that would be easy to follow and would educate me about nutrition so I could maintain my new found sense of health and wellness. I work in the food and hospitality industry, and am a lover of good food, fresh ingredients, and dining out. I wasn't convinced that I would do well eating the Ideal Protein foods supplemented throughout the day on top of the required amount whole foods, but I did! I actually eat a lot more food than previous, am cooking way more (and enjoying it), and with a few hacks I am able to create tasty meals out of the IP foods, plus the IP snacks and water enhancers are pretty good. I am now three weeks into phase 2, and feel equipped and excited about the next leg of my journey. I will go back to phase 1 after the holidays as I still want to drop a few more but for now, I am feeling refreshed, lighter, and have more energy than I have in years.

I am a hardworking man with a busy family so it’s hard to find time to eat properly. A lot of the time I would grab breakfast when I grab a coffee in a drive through, then grab a lunch maybe a drive through- I wanted something “taste good”and filling, and for dinner probably Earls. We wanted to change so for a while our family ordered dinners from Hello Fresh that we could prepare in about 45 min. That helped bit to break eating out. One day I decided it was time to take better care of my health, I am 6-1 and 275 pounds but very active and my back was bugging me and I was tired of looking fat. I met Zan through a business coach I use and he had great success in his life changes so I figured I would give it a go. My experience of Ideal protein is the value of the coach is equally responsible for your success, I worked the program for 6 months and lost 70 pounds, the plan was way to easy to follow as they provide most your food. Minimal prep time and the food it pretty tasty. I had to make a lean dinner with vegetables but the results I was getting kept me motivated. I think the part that has the most value for me is that Zan has been patient with some of my choices, she stands in my future success and had shown me how to keep the weight off by learning how to give my body what it needs. Any time I have a craving it was due to not enough fat in my diet. On holidays and family trips Zan would always help build a plan so I could enjoy some fancy restaurants and sweet tooth’s like in Disneyland. What I’m trying to say is that this organization is committed to stripping the extra weight, and then get you eating in a way that supports keeping the weight off. I will tell you I am not perfect, I would drink beer, have sweets, but Zan would always work with me to find out why and show me better choices. I highly recommend Ideal Protein.

The Ideal Protein Program at Vital Body Weight Loss and Wellness has been a game-changer for me. The weekly on-line coaching sessions with Em are amazing, she’s brilliant, providing the necessary motivation and guidance to navigate me through through my weight loss journey, 15 minutes is really never long enough for us, we could literally talk for hours! One of the best aspects of this program is its focus on sustainable weight. This approach ensures that the weight loss is not just temporary, but a long-term lifestyle change. Overall, I would highly recommend the Ideal Protein Program to anyone looking to embark on a weight loss journey. It’s not just a diet, it’s a lifestyle change!
