The Center for Health & Weight Management (CFHWM), formerly Lighten Up For Life, is Silicon Valley's premier, award-winning weight management program. The programs we offer help participants improve their health and feel better by losing weight thus reducing their weight related health risks.

Serving the Silicon Valley since 1993, The Center for Health & Weight Management's comprehensive approach to weight loss and long-term weight maintenance is based on proven, state-of-the-art research developed in part by Health Management Resources™ (HMR®), a national healthcare company providing weight management programs and training services to the medical community.

Due to the hard work of all patients and staff alike, CFHWM is regularly awarded HMR Gold Standard Certificates of Achievement. These awards are given based on the clinical data submitted to HMR in areas such as group attendance, compliance and weight loss success rates. The awards are given to the top programs within these different categories. In 2005, CFHWM was recognized with Gold Standard Awards for Excellence in 10 areas. 2006 marked a record breaking year as the Center was awarded 19 Gold Standard Awards!
