It’s about losing weight in a healthy manner by taking full advantage of proper nutritional foods and supplements and gaining an education in weight loss in a friendly and safe environment which includes confidentiality.

Charlie’s Weight Control for Wellness service at 1125  Fifth Street in Estevan is owned and operated by Poi Loveless, who states that it is encouraging to see clients/customers gain relief from health-related problems that could include heart disease, diabetes, colitis, diverticulitis and several other afflictions that can attack the body.

“It truly is a great feeling that by the time my clients are finished protocol, they may be free from taking prescription drugs and also feel so much better in their own skin,” she said.

Loveless said she started her own training regime with Ideal Protein when that company arrived in Canada seven years ago and she’s been an advocate ever since. She completed all levels of the IP Academy training including their micro-nutrition course.

Charlies, she explained, offers a nutritional IP program developed by doctors that is scientifically proven to achieve weight loss in a supervised, safe and healthy manner.

The outlet, with two other staff members, features programs for clients that see many of them lose between three and five pounds a week,  most of it being fat loss, since muscle mass is not compromised in the program. The program tones and revitalizes skin, treats cellulite and promotes more vitality and energy in the clients by naturally suppressing appetites and re-establishing pancreatic function.

The business offers very personal one-to-one client to protein coach counselling sessions on a weekly basis with follow up for weight and measurement plans and analysis.

“Every friendly coach at Charlies has gone through extensive training and is certified by Ideal Protein (IP) to provide knowledgeable guidance. We also ensure all coaches and staff have personally been on the protocols, to give you the best support possible,” said Loveless.

The company’s body composite analysis provides the client with accurate and up-to-date information regarding fat mass, muscle mass and total body fat percentage. “This gives us the distinct advantage of ensuring that only fat will be lost and no muscle during the course of your diet.” Loveless added.

The company’s medical professional teams have creatively put together a series of videos which cover basic topics varying from physiology and bio chemistry, which are all related to the body during weight-loss programs. These comprehensive videos also include menu ideas created by renowned chefs and a great forum of question and answers for the viewer to communicate with fellow dieters. The videos also allows dieters to ask their own questions with the medical administration online.

“All of this is available in your own dashboard where you can access your video on demand, anytime, anywhere you want,” said Loveless.

On the topic of food nutrition, Loveless noted, that during and upon completion of the diet, clients receive information regarding weight loss and maintenance. Information is provided regarding carbohydrates, fats and protein, and when to consume them. This is vital information that provides clients by the thousands to make this diet their last diet.

Charlies issues protein products used to reach and maintain a healthy weight. The high biological value protein with 100 per cent protein scores, allows the body to lose fat and maintain the muscle mass with a quick but healthy protocol that can lead to long-lasting results. Protein packets contain highly assailable protein isolates combined with essential amino acids and are complemented with vitamins and mineral salts.

The company offers an extensive line of high-grade, made-in-Canada protein products from breakfast, lunches and snacks featuring salty or sweet and high quality IP vitamins.
