Form YOU 3 Weight Loss Centers has been a leader
in the weight loss industry since 1982. Millions of dieters,
just like you, have achieved tremendous success on our weight loss,
weight management and nutrition programs with our high quality products
and comprehensive member support system.
Form YOU 3 takes an integrated approach to weight loss. We offer two
separate programs to fit members' individual weight loss needs. Our
Traditional Program consists of food exchanges that provide a healthy
diet and allow members to enjoy wholesome, natural, grocery store foods
while still losing weight. Our new Form YOU FastTM Program is a
nutrient-rich meal replacement program that offers aggressive weight
loss and is often suited to members' active lifestyles. Our support
system offers one-on-one guidance, behavioral modification techniques,
weight management classes (in select locations), and motivational and
nutritional tips. Form YOU 3 helps members to lose weight successfully
and keep it off. Members learn to apply the skills they have been taught
to change unhealthy food behavior patterns and develop a positive
mindset to achieve and maintain a healthy body weight!
Can you devote the same focus to our franchise as our workout teams do to their fitness? If so, that's the kind of franchisee we're looking for! Platoon Fitness
That's right just like one of our workout teams, we expect our franchise team to be on board with the program 100%. There's simply no point in becoming a part of the team if you are not prepared to put in the effort and keep a sharp focus on the key factors needed to reach our franchise goals. The reason for our company's phenomenal success is no accident. Years of planning, testing, adjusting and refining have taught us many of the pitfalls of business ownership and allowed us to continually improve and learn through experience. A Platoon Fitness franchisee needs a clear mind to focus on the most important task at hand: running a successful business.
