In fact, 90% of its clients lose weight and 68% keep it off 18 months later. Retrofit clients are two times more satisfied than those on other weight loss programs, according to a recent customer satisfaction survey.

A Duke University study found that as an individual's BMI rises, his or her healthcare costs skyrocket and each overweight or obese employee costs employers nearly $1,500 a year in added healthcare costs.
