5 Weight Loss Retreats To Kick Start Your Weight Loss Journey

5 Weight Loss Retreats To Kick Start Your Weight Loss Journey

Are you in search of a retreat to kickstart your weight loss journey? You’ve come to the right place. As a team of weight loss nutritionists, we’re well aware of the key factors required for a healthy, successful weight loss retreat.

We work with clients to help them lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way. We’re often asked how we feel about weight loss retreats and whether they are a good way to lose weight and the answer is…they can be. In the same way that crash diets don’t tend to lead to long-term weight loss, weight loss retreats on their own aren’t usually enough to reach your goals. However, as a kick-start to your journey, if you pick the right one they can get you started on the right path and provide motivation for the work to follow. Below, we’ve picked out five of our favourite retreats from across the world.

Of course, when you get home, we’d recommend working with a qualified nutritionist to continue your progress. If you are looking to lose weight, we can help you overcome your weight challenges, reach your goal weight and maintain it long term. Book yourself in for a complimentary 25 mintue call or contact us and a member of our team will be in touch soon. We can talk through your challenges and explore whether one of our Intelligent Weight Loss programmes is right for you.

Here are five weight loss retreats worth looking into…

5 WEIGHT LOSS RETREATS WORTH CHECKING OUT

MARBELLA CLUB HOTEL, SPAIN

Rather than signing up for retreats that promise drastic weight loss in a short stay (which are rarely sustainable), instead consider opting for a retreat focussed on nutritious food where the menu is tailored to your needs. Marbella Club offers menus curated by in-house nutritional therapists and resident chefs, with dishes focusing on locally-sourced seasonal ingredients. There are also weekly talks on health topics, culinary workshops and visits from world-renowned health and healing experts. It’s the perfect place to spend a long-weekend kick-starting your health regime in a picture-perfect location. Read Kim’s full review of Marbella Club here.

The starry clientele return year after year, so the only danger is that you’ll want to keep going back.

LANSERHOF, EUROPEAN LOCATIONS

From naturopathy, energy medicine and psychology, to cutting-edge medical tests and treatments. Lanserhof’s programme is focused on detoxification and purification of the body. This is largely achieved through fasting. With four health resorts across Europe, devotees from across the world check in for a reset once, or even several times, per year.  Guests report that they enjoy the experience of being completely taken care of during their stay.
