Ever hear the saying, "You get out of it what you put in to it!" This applies here like no other place I have ever been. The program "Healthy Lifestyle" is just that, they educate you on how to live a healthier, more enjoyable lifestyle.
They give you the hands on experience of living it, along with reasonable exercise programs that challenge, without over burdening your abilities, cooking classes that show you how to properly prepare and plan meals, lectures and presentations that equip you for life in the "real" world, and food that in my opinion was FANTASTIC.
This is not a "boot camp" for weight loss, or a "Spa" with champagne and chocolate covered strawberries. If you need a drill instructor driving you, or to be waited on hand and foot and pampered this is NOT the place for you.
If you want a realistic, honest approach to a healthier lifestyle, a caring ,knowledgeable, and concerned staff showing you how to be a better you, how to exercise without hurting yourself, how to take control of your life back, and how to manage and control weight issues then this IS the place for you.
If you feel that you have the basic knowledge on how you should be living, eating, and exercising but need help putting it into practical application so that you can "live it" than this IS the place for you.
If it is time for you to get serious about living a healthier more active life, this IS the place for you.
From weight loss, food preparation and proper ways to exercise, I acquired the tools I needed, and was shown how to use them.
I Highly Recommend H3I, our weeks there have helped my wife and I make a New Beginning in our lives and we plan on “vacationing” here at least once a year.

I've taken vacations all over the world and always returned home with extra pictures for the photo album and extra pounds for the scale!

Hilton Head Health Institute was a week of focusing on myself, my stress and emotional eating, and learning about nutrition and exercise. I lost ten pounds, and 5 more since I've been back. I plan to go one or two weeks per year because losing weight is a lifetime struggle and realistically I'll have my ups and downs.

My accomodations were beautiful, new, comfortable Villas. As it was I spent very little time there anyway. Most days were spent on beach walks, fitness classes, water aerobics and educational classes by a top notch group of instructors who were informative, personable and funny.

The food was fresh, low calorie and portion controlled and the service impeccable. If you are looking for a health spa that will pamper you into looking like a model than keep dreaming. But if you are ready for a vacation that will destress you, help you lose weight and more importantly give you the tools to lose weight and change your life than I can't recommend Hilton Head Institute enough.

I had never been to a weight loss camp before, but I would sure suggest the Hilton Head Health Institute to anyone who is thinking about it. I was surprised at how intense it was, yet it was fun, too. Good staff and program, great location, got to know some other guests, too.

We just returned from 2 weeks at the Health Institute. This program was more than we could have dreamed. We were surprised to find that we enjoyed eating healthy food and exercising. The staff was supportive and encouraging and we made great friends! I wish we could have found this program sooner!
