Its something millions of Americans struggle with their weight. And right along with that are thousands of diets claiming to help people shed pounds fast.

But if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

However if you are ready for a change, there is a program that is changing lifestyles and helping people lose weight and keep it off. Its called the Balanced Weight Loss Program at Avera Heart Hospital.

My weights not going to change if I dont, said Carla Deutsch.

That was Carlas ah-ha moment. She had tried other diets before. Losing the weight wasnt the problem, it was keeping the weight off she struggled with.

I was just a point where I needed to, I decided I was ready. I needed to lose weight and this program came out, said Carla.

She started the Balanced Weight Loss Program at Avera Heart Hospital.

Its just grocery items and a dietitian to tell me how to do it, said Carla.

Registered Dietitian Lauren Cornay provides Carla tools she can use to not only help her lose weight, but maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Everyone who goes through the Balanced Weight Loss gets a resource book that kind of shows proper portions and what a balanced eating pattern looks like how much fruit, how many vegetables, how much protein, a good understanding of sort of where my calories should be coming from, said Cornay.

They started out with keeping a diary of what I was eating, not changing what I was eating, just keeping a diary. And then she looked at that and said oh well heres some problem areas, which I probably knew but just needed to be reinforced. It really helped me to see a lot of the things that I thought I was doing right that I was doing wrong, said Carla.

Motivation and accountability are the hardest things. For a lot of people I may not even be teaching them a whole lot they dont know, but a lot of us need that extra motivation or we need someone to be accountable to to make sure we can stay on track when life hands us curve balls, said Cornay.

Carla is a nurse and with that often comes odd hours.

In the morning Im planning -- okay so Im working night, what do I need to take with me? And at dinner, what am I going to do for dinner? So Im a much better planner now than I was before. I set a goal originally and I made that original goal and Ive set a second goal and Im struggling to get there but Im going to get there, yes. I think for me, goals have worked and its just something that you can look forward to and you know you have something that you can look forward to and you know you have something to work for," said Carla.

With Carlas positivity and drive, theres no doubt Carla will meet her goal.

Cornay says you must be willing to put in the hard work and effort to see and feel results from the Balanced Weight Loss Program.
