Calibrate Reviews

My coach Shannon is positive and not pushy. She keeps me interested when I feel I am not. The meds are amazing. Need to focus more on water and finding more interesting foods. Don’t love the readings but I try. If you want to lose weight and feel better about yourself, this is a great program.

What can I say about Calibrate other than totally amazed. I started this venture a little skeptical unsure what I thought about the program and every two week coaching session and only wish I had done this months before. My coach has a vested interest in my success. This program is very well design for wherever you are in your journey. Access to RN and message board is beyond helpful. If you’re thinking about trying calibrate and you just don’t know I’m here to tell you take the step forward. Become the better you.

So far this has been a great experience. My coach Jamie seems to be very knowledgeable and is very helpful With any questions that I might have. The classes are straightforward and easy to follow. As a matter fact I have recommended this to a couple of friends and I can’t wait to see what the future brings. Thanks again!

I have been fortunate to have two amazing coaches this year- Kamie and Rebecca. They have been so supportive of me on my weight loss journey, offering encouragement and support all along. Calibrate coaches have tons of resources they can offer and I’ve found the program easy to follow. I’ve learned so much about myself this year and now have the tools to carry on by myself.

I have been Calibrate for almost a whole year. I have lost about 60 pounds. I really enjoyed all the lessons and the breakdowns of those lessons. Thank you to Hannah, my coach, if it wasn’t for her I wouldn’t have stayed focused. I am proud of what I have learned myself for what I’m capable of and Calibrate help with that.

This program was a game changer for me. The coaching, medication, and education helped me reset my eating, exercise, sleep and overall self care. I am excited to maintain my progress with lifestyle changes I’ve made and continue into year 2 of the program!

The support I receive is great. It really helps on my journey. I've really learned a lot about my "why". The education you provide and the guidance you give is so helpful. This is the first time I have been under 220 in at least ten years.

My experience with Calibrate has been a good one overall! In my first year, I was able to hit the 10% goal with ease, and now in my second year, I continue to lose. The coaches I have worked with have been encouraging and motivating. Even when I was really down on myself for plateauing they always find solutions to redirect me down the right path again! What is most important to me is the foundation of building good habits. While I have not lost as much as I would have liked I have gained the confidence to build strong healthy habits to lead a long life with my children and family. Thank you, Calibrate!

I have had a wonderful experience with Calibrate. My coach, Kelly is amazing. I look forward to our twice a month meetings. She inspires me be my best self and I am very happy when we share my success. She uses real life experiences to help me reach our goals and always has motivating words for me. She also helps me focus on the positives so that I can be successful.

I joined in May and was impressed with the professionalism of the program from the start: the literature, coaching sessions, required labs, and doctor visit. The med took a little longer to get started but it eventually started end of August and has been great: I have already lost close to 10% of my weight. It’s been relatively easy to communicate with people on the different channels and I have always received a response. My coaches have been very helpful, supportive, and friendly. The weekly lessons are well thought out and well written and have given me new perspectives. I would definitely recommend the program to friends and family. (Please, if you publish any of this, publish it anonymously or with just my initials. Thanks.)

Once they have your money - they vanish. They make promises about medically supported weight loss but they will not give you the medications. They have repeatedly tried to move me to medications my insurance won't cover and once I have declined them STILL BILLED MY INSURANCE. You cannot talk to a person - only endless emails and chats on their app - if you can use it without it crashing - which they don't answer for days at a time. The one person you do talk to is limited to 15 minutes every two weeks and is so crunched between appointments that no meaningful conversations happen. Go anywhere but this program! It is all advertising, no substance.

I joined Calibrate at the suggestion of a friend who was about 3 months into the Calibrate program. I’d been trying to lose approx 12% of my body weight for almost 5 years but would lose and regain the weight. My BMI was over 30, so technically I was obese and I was very uncomfortable in the actual physical sense. I have been on Calibrate for about 7 months and have lost 9% of my body weight using the behavioral techniques acquired and with the assistance of the physician prescribed medications. (While I’ve had some of the most common side effects of the medications, I considered these mild and not unmanageable).

It has been great working with Calibrate. Having the guidelines of a doctor and the continued support of a coach is life changing. What we are taught are changes that will last a lifetime. This is the best program I have ever done and know I will be successful after the program.

I have made many recommendations of the Calibrate Program to friends that have questioned how I lost weight. In my year with Calibrate I lost 80 lbs. I will begin my second year next month and my goal is to maintain this weight loss. Calibrate has the perfect amount of tools, resources, and accountability. The biweekly coach sessions are an awesome addition to the program… Thank you REBECCA!!!

I gave these people 1600 dollars expecting good service on September 9. It is October 18 and still no GLP-1. They claim it was a process with insurance. Great excuse but on October 7 BCBS sent a letter saying all was good on the GLP-1. I am not sure exactly what I am getting for 1600 bucks. I am still paying a copay for the medication. There is a televisit doctor, and a "coach" that really does nothing that everyone who has been on diet programs hasn't seen before. There has to be a better way than this process. There are no phone numbers to call. There is a messaging system that seems to take days before a response is given. It sounds too good to be true, so far it is too good to be true.

The program is thorough, effective and has great tips and tools. Work needs to be done on the communication methods to connect when help is needed and in ensuring that medicine is refilled. The $25 a month for meds promise is not accurate. I paid $1300 a month but have had good results and feel much healthier.

After a year on the Calibrate program which exceeded my expectations with a weight loss of 33% of my body weight, I’ve been really happy with the Calibrate Masters/Year 2 program that reinforces the strong habits developed but also takes it to the next level with new goals, challenges and ways to bolster my success.

I have tried everything over the years only to quit and fail! I am now just over the 6-month mark and feel amazing! I have lost over 60 lbs and tons of inches. When I began I was in a size 18 and XXL tops…just purchased size 12s and Large tops.

The program overall has been positive but there are a few areas for improvement. 1. Medical team responses to questions are very slow. I've waited up to 10 days which is unacceptable given this program involves medication. 2. During the pharmacy change, service, quite honestly, was a nightmare. It didn't appear to be well executed and my meds were delayed while they went through the transition. This has since resolved but I would suggest more leadtime and better execution in the future.

Calibrate has been a great experience. Overall I have felt supported and safe. I have lost over 20% of my weight and look forward to the last few pounds! I have had a little trouble with getting medication and support but that seems to be fixed now. I feel so much healthier!

I have been on many weight loss plans and gyms where I have dedicated myself to the process with no real improvement. Calibrate has been so successful thru the coaching, plan and medication. I wish I had found them years ago.

I decided to sign up with Calibrate because I wanted a holistic weight management program - nutrition, medical oversight, prescription management, and one-on-one support. I was wary of paying $1,649 up front but I decided I was investing in myself - by paying it all, I would hold myself accountable and not bag out on a monthly program. When the program proved to be absolutely awful, I understood why they charge upfront - if it was a monthly subscription, no one would pay for it.

I’m a 5’2”, 45 years young active wife, mother of 2 whom also works full time. I was a college soccer player and have also completed 4 70.3 triathlons. The past 5 years my weight has gradually been increasing, while I have also been changing my diet, exercising with no results. When I read about the weight loss success of GLP-1 and 2 friends who also had success on GLP-1 I sought out a knowledgeable doctor. My primary care physician is very conservative so I didn’t think he would prescribe a GLP-1 for me. My BMI was 30.5 and I also had elevated cholesterol levels.

A representative of the company contacted me in response to my note of the long wait time and was able to schedule an earlier appointment. I very much appreciated this prompt action. So far, I am happy with the service and will update once I start on the program.

I have found the material in the lessons to be very informative and very helpful. I would highly recommend this program to anyone wanting to manage their weight and really understand how to improve your metabolism. Medically supervised program with accountability and coaching is a winning combination.

I have been extremely pleased with Calibrate. I have lost over 20% of my body weight and I feel amazing! I have really enjoyed revamping my diet and honing in on other health habits to sustain a healthy lifestyle and weight for years to come. My coach has been great, with a helpful blend of support and focus on areas in need of work. I was in a very discouraged place when I started this journey with Calibrate, feeling like nothing was working to take off the extra weight. I am back to a weight that I haven’t seen in over a decade and since before having children. I feel great and I have recommended the program to many friends. As a psychologist, I also feel that the program is grounded in science and sound principles to support success in the long run. I would recommend the program to anyone.

Six months ago I was at my wits' end. After almost a decade of steady weight gain, I had reached an all-time high. That was bad enough on its own, but at 48 years old and with a few health risk factors, I knew time was no longer on my side to get things back on track. I had to make some changes before I ended up with health consequences that would be much more difficult to overcome.

If you want to pay $1600 for a scale and a doctor assessment of your weight, go for it. That is all you will get for your money with this company. The doctor appointment ties you in to not qualify for a refund. I joined and was not provided the medicine, the educational modules, nothing! And I am still paying on the loan I took out for this scam without any hope of being refunded.

They charged $1500 and just disappeared. No phone number. You can call just wait and if you ask how long on chat automated Messeae came will reply in 3 business days and nothing!!!! Stay away. My doctor is so much better.

When I started Calibrate, I wasn’t sure what to expect. My coach Jamie has been so helpful and supportive through the whole process. This program takes you step by step making small changes for big results. Each class and coaching session is designed to help make these lifestyle changes sustainable. I’ve lost ten percent of my body weight and dropped clothes sizes and it’s only been four and a half months.

I have been in the program approximately 6 months and have had a good experience. I feel like I really connect with my coach Jamie. she’s such a great personality and encouraging! I haven’t had any problems with getting my medications and it is teaching me a healthy way to be mindful of what I eat, get my fitness in and how important taking care of yourself overall is! I would highly recommend Calibrate!

I found Calibrate in a search for medical weight loss. I liked the Calibrate approach of changing your set point, because that makes sense and I’d seen it in my own life; I kept going back to the same weight. My doctor and I reviewed Calibrate and surgery. She considered surgery a good option, while I was reluctant because I am an emotional eater and felt I didn’t have a lot of support; I was afraid I’d be in the 10% that failed it. I really needed a support system! She reviewed the medical information on Calibrate and suggested it. I started the weight loss triangle in mid-March. I have lost 33 lbs, almost 11% of my body weight. My labs are all normal (I was prediabetic and likely had sleep apnea), I sleep better, I have more energy, and I feel like I’m making a sustainable change.

My Calibrate coach has helped me achieve weight loss I did not think was possible. On this program, I learned to focus on one task at a time rather than juggle several concepts all at once. This approach helped change my “all or nothing” thinking to achieve gradual weight loss over a period of time. The new habits I developed have changed my lifestyle, and as a result, I have a healthier relationship with myself.

The onboarding, support and staff of professionals has made the process so easy, Coach ** is fantastic, I’m Grateful I have her in my corner! I have lost almost 20 pounds so far. Their approach is a set of small goals to reach your health target in a year. Obtaining the medication was easy and relatively quick. I already feel drastically better. I’ve been on this program for less than 2 months, I’m so excited to see where I am in 6 months. Thank you Silvana for recommending Calibrate to me.

At the age of 52, with a history of gaining and losing the same 20 pounds in my adult life… I came to the realization that I needed assistance with approaching my weight and health. Calibrate is the perfect program.. and yes it’s a program! No quick weight loss gimmicks. The support is there and ready to help and guide. It’s not a painful program where you feel pressured to post results or perform in any kind of way! The Calibrate program is 100% for us and our health… I am so grateful to the medical team, but especially grateful for my coach. This is my journey to better my health, and the bonus is that I am losing weight and doing it right this time…Thank you Calibrate!

Updated 12/21/2022: I had a great experience over the last year with Calibrate. Coaching was key. My coach, Cheslea **, was awesome. I needed the structure and accountability that the program provided. My why was all around keeping up with my teenagers when skiing. Not only have I lost around 19% of my weight (over 50lbs), I now ski top to bottom without stopping and have beat my teenagers to the lift a number of times. It is December and I’ve already skied 10 days. I am a new more active me! I’m moving onto masters and my 2nd year. Can’t wait to see what more I can accomplish with calibrate!

The Calibrate philosophy of making small changes over time has really worked for me. In the past I have tried implementing big food/lifestyle changes all at once which proved unsustainable every single time. But after 3 months, the small changes I’ve made are just now just part of my life. For the first time I feel in control of my weight and my health. This empowerment feels better (almost!) than losing the weight!

I started my journey with Calibrate in Feb of 2022. I purchased the year plan. Nearly $1500 for the year. I have had 4 coaches , and no longer am receiving the medication I was on for nearly 4.5 month. I now have hot flashes, headaches and fatigue. I have not lost the weight I really was hoping to with this program. The phone application they use is also hard to use. Sometimes you can’t find the education materials, it may not save your tracking and /or just does not connect to the internet. I was sincerely hoping for a helpful weight loss program, but have not received that with this program. I feel like I have wasted my money.

Updated on 8/1/2023: I have been with Calibrate for a year now. It was a horrible initial 3 months getting my prescription started. After that, they did well. I even signed up for another year. Now, here we go again. I have been without my medication for almost a month. They will reorder the meds but not do the prior authorization, so I CAN'T get it. It takes several days for a response and there is no number to call. This is insane! I’m going to try and get my money back!

So, I made a $125- $150 to be interviewed by a Calibrate Doctor online/remote... we went over the process and cost of the program.... Very Expensive process... I qualified based on my lab results... however, they needed to confirm what my health insurance will cover regarding the various medications/injections... I never received a callback or email update during the next 60 days.... But I got a bill from Labcorp for $520 for the requested labwork from Calibrate. Apparently, my health insurance doesn't cover lab work that has a code for obesity.... Keep in mind, I am diabetic, and this code is fine.

I initially joined Calibrate to get access to the injectable weight loss medicine that was making my friends magically thinner. I didn't think much about the Intensive Lifestyle Intervention (ILI) portion of the part and figured I would play along. Unfortunately, my insurance plan will not approve these medications for obesity. I was already several weeks into ILI part of the program when I found out.

With all the negativity floating around during your transition period, I want you to know that not only have I NOT had any problems with the continuity of my care but still continue to recommend the program to those who ask how I’m losing weight. My coach Shannon and Dr. Cici ** are always there when I need them. Thank you for this life changing experience. :)

After a few weeks of waiting for my prescription, I reached out to Calibrate's customer service on 7/9 to get an update. I never received a response. I looked up Calibrate's Twitter account and saw a large amount of customers tweeting them who, like me, were unhappy with their experience so far and never received any medication. I had a meeting with my Calibrate coach who told me she was leaving the company.

I started Calibrate in November 2021. My coach has been amazing through my weight loss journey. I have lost 35 pounds. That’s the good news. The bad news started 2 months into the program. You are scheduled to receive your ** every four weeks. My first refill was delayed 2 weeks. My second refill was delayed 2 weeks. I had signed up for auto refill!! My third refill delayed over a week, to the point that I no longer wanted to use the Calibrate online pharmacy. I asked that my prescription be sent to my local pharmacy. It has not gotten any better. At first I received responses within 48 hours. Now I go more than a week without any response. This plan is based on support and medication. I can count on support, but have never been able to rely on timely delivery of refills. How hard is it to call my pharmacy and authorize 3-4 refills?

After exhaustive research (including here) I signed on 6/20/22. They took my $1600 and I had an online doctor visit. Since then, none of my questions have been answered and I have seen no progress on prescriptions. Today their CEO sent a communication to all subscribers saying that the medication access issues and long response times are unacceptable and asking for people to trust them. They have broken trust with me. I invested significantly time and emotional energy in this decision and times my enrollment to maximize insurance benefits, and at this juncture based on my experience and their communication I have NO CONFIDENCE in Calibrate. I don’t know if they grew too fast, couldn’t adequate funding, or what happened. But I have not received what I signed up for and there’s no indication it will turn around in time for me to meet my goals. I have demanded a full refund and am exploring other options. I am so disappointed.

Do not be fooled by this program. It is a money making venture more than a weight loss program. The program is suppose to be centered on the fact that the company says they will work to get you on Wegovy. But the truth is they will work to get you on any GLP-1 medication. I was already taking ** 1mg through my Endocrinologist. I spoke with their doctor on March 31, 2022 and was told that at some point ** 2mg was approved but not available. I told the doctor I was already on it and they went and approved the medication as a ploy to keep me in the program. I asked for out.

Over the years, I have struggled with my weight and have tried all the big programs like Weight Watchers, Atkins, Body for Life, Keto, Intermittent Fasting and nothing moved the dial like Calibrate. Once I was past menopause, there was no amount of exercise or extreme calorie reduction that would budge my weight at all. The difference with Calibrate is how all-encompassing this program is across all facets of your life.

I have struggled with my weight my entire life, and have lost/regained 50+ pounds several times prior to Calibrate. I can lose weight with white-knuckled will-power, but have never been able to keep it off. I've learned that rigid weight loss programs are ultimately unsustainable. In July 2021, I was at my highest weight ever and felt utterly hopeless. I had come to the conclusion that I was ultimately a failure, and that staying at nearly 300lbs was healthier than yo-yo-dieting. Then I came across an ad for Calibrate on social, and although I was highly skeptical I decided to at least read about it.

When I decided traditional diet programs weren't working for me and I had had enough of being unhealthy and unhappy I decided to join Calibrate! This set me on an amazing 1 year journey where I learned how to eat, not diet. I learned how important emotional health, sleep and hydration were to success! Through thorough medical appointments, use of appropriate FDA approved medications and coaching support along with the connections I made through social media and on Facebook I was able to have success unlike any other program I have tried! Calibrate taught me how to fuel my body and my mind and made me realize how important self care, meditation and medication is! I highly recommend Calibrate to anyone who is looking for that jumpstart to a new, healthier, best version of you!

I saw an ad for Calibrate on my Facebook feed. The eating plan and the pillars made sense to me. I decided to try it out for a year. I had tried every program there was, and I had lost weight before but always gained it back and never maintained it. I joined in December 2020. The app was straightforward. I met with the medical team and then met with my coach. The pillars are simple to follow, and the eating plan was not restrictive. I had lost 13% of my body weight in the first three months, exceeding the 10% goal.

I have had a great first year on Calibrate! I have lost 15% of my bodyweight, and I have never felt so good. I feel that the medication, biweekly lessons and one on one meetings with my coach have been essential to my success. The lessons and program slowly changed small habits that have really added up. I feel that I was totally in control and was supported by Calibrate the entire way. I have been able to go on vacation, go to weddings, parties, etc. and I have not felt restricted. I was even able to lose weight on vacation because I had to tools and knowledge to make the best choices possible. There is no counting calories or points, and no pre-made, artificial food. I love that the program focuses on clean eating. That is something that is not just going to help with weight loss, but overall health as well. I am looking forward to year 2, and continuing my journey.
