"Dr. Siegal's methods and COOKIE DIET™ products have helped more than a half million people during the past thirty-two years," said Dr. Hazem Elariny, medical director of Lifestyle Weight Management Center. "That's a major accomplishment for any doctor. We're honored to have Dr. Siegal attend our grand opening and greet our patients and staff."

Lifestyle Weight Management Center offers its patients a unique weight loss program that includes the kind of support system needed to make lifestyle changes that lead to permanent weight loss. Support is provided by a team of physicians, nutritionists and psychologists under the medical direction of Hazem Elariny, M.D., Ph.D., one of the East Coast's most prominent bariatric surgeons. Appointments can be scheduled by calling 703-778-7878.

A key part of the Lifestyle Weight Management System is a reduced-calorie diet aided by Dr. Siegal's® COOKIE DIET™-brand hunger-controlling meal replacement cookies. Dr. Siegal's diet shakes and soups will be added to the program early next year.

Dr. Siegal's diet cookies contain his secret blend of food proteins called amino acids that effectively suppresses hunger without drugs. Dr. Siegal began offering his cookies to his own patients in 1975 and has since provided them to more than 200 other doctors throughout North America and Mexico. At the age of 78, Dr. Siegal still personally makes every batch of his secret protein blend by hand in his own bakery near his Miami, Florida, medical practice.

"It's always exciting when my fellow physicians choose to incorporate the COOKIE DIET™ products into their own practices," said Dr. Siegal. "Patients love the COOKIE DIET™ and have great success with it. It's a pleasure to attend the Lifestyle Weight Management Center's grand opening and support Dr. Elariny as he brings the COOKIE DIET™ products to the Washington, DC area."

Dr. Siegal has been featured in countless media outlets including ABC's Good Morning America, Woman's World, Globe and Mail, and the New York Post. Recently, a profile of Dr. Siegal and the COOKIE DIET™ aired on Fox News Channel in prime time in more than thirty-five U.S. cities.
