WLMC shifts from liquid protein to Nutri/System 2000 plan
WLMC moves to Nutri/System 2000 with blood tests every two weeks, doctor visits, and behavior modification. The program uses powdered and canned foods promising balanced nutrition, with maintenance stages and a weekly cost higher than liquid protein. Weight loss may reach a pound daily at times, though rate is slower.
