What We Do
At Retrofit, we are passionate about helping employers, health plans and partners tackle obesity in the workplace. We specialize in delivering outcomes-driven weight management solutions to self-insured companies with 5,000 or more employees. Our roots are in direct-to-consumer business, so we bring the perfect blend of deep consumer insights, backed by the best scientific experts in the industry, to deliver a solution where 90 percent of participants lose weight, and 68 percent keep it off 18 months later.
How Retrofit Works
Retrofit delivers the personalized attention of a coach, combined with live interactive classes, social support from expert-led online community groups and self-monitoring technology to encourage healthy behaviors and achieve lasting weight-loss results.
