PFC promises fast results, and their approach is to push you very hard with a low calorie intake and intense exercise routine. That's probably a good formula for athletes, but it's not good for people who have struggled with weight for a long time and are desperate to make changes fast. I was very overweight, very out of shape and after having trouble finding the motivation to kick-start myself I thought that maybe a controlled environment, aka "fat camp", might be a way to get some fast results and get on the right track. I stayed at PFC for 4 weeks and lost 25 pounds. But the environment at PFC was unnatural and extreme and it didn't translate back to "real life". The weight came back after a few months. It wasn't until a year later, when I started a more moderate program of controlling my food intake and regular exercise that the weight came off, and stayed off (50+ lbs). The staff at PFC was for the most part very kind and empathetic, but the intense program put a lot of stress on everyone - during my 4 weeks there at least 3 people went home because of injuries sustained while exercising. Save your money, and your body. Find a local counselor who can help you to create a sustainable, long-term program that works for you. The results will come a little bit slower, but they will come, and there's a much better chance that you'll develop habits that you can live with comfortably and sustain.
