Questions

Answers before you call.

Still have a question? Call (888) 488-8936, or ask it in the form.

How does pricing work?
PFC runs $700 to $900 per night, all-inclusive: your resort room, every meal, daily training, nutrition education and coaching. Your rate depends on how long you stay, how many people share your room and add-ons like Spa Fit, golf or tennis. Send a rough length of stay and a program advisor will give you an exact total.
I'm out of shape. Can I keep up?
Every session is led by a trainer who adjusts it to your level as you go, whether you're getting back into movement or you've trained for years. Guests arrive with 20 pounds to lose or well over 100, and range from their 30s to their 70s. You'll be pushed the right amount and leave feeling accomplished, not broken.
I already train. Will it be hard enough?
Yes. Trainers scale every session up as well as down, so a strong guest gets pushed as hard as they want. You can add tennis, golf or pickleball on the resort courts and courses.
How much weight will I lose?
It depends on where you start and how long you stay, so we won't promise a number. Day one includes an InBody scan, so you'll see exactly where you're starting. Tell your program advisor your goal and your timeline, and they'll help you pick a length of stay that fits.
How is PFC different from other retreats and camps?
Most programs hand you a plan and send you home. PFC teaches you what to eat and why, how your habits have been working against you, and what to do differently once real life gets busy. The results stick because you understand them, and you learn it all at the Omni La Costa.
How long should I stay?
Guests stay anywhere from one week to several months. One week gives you a strong start and a plan for home. Two to three weeks gives new habits time to settle in before you leave.
I'm using a weight loss medication. Is PFC right for me?
Yes, and a growing number of our guests are in the same spot. GLP-1s and other medications work best with the right nutrition, training and habits. Our staff works with guests on these medications to preserve lean muscle, get nutrition right and build the routines that make results last.
What will I eat? Can you handle allergies?
Chef-prepared meals designed with nutritionists, using fresh whole ingredients, every day you're here. You won't cook or plan a single meal. Tell us about allergies or needs like vegetarian or gluten-free when you book, and cooking demos show you how to make the same food at home.
Where is PFC?
PFC is at the Omni La Costa Resort & Spa in Carlsbad, California, minutes from the beach. San Diego International is about 30 minutes south, and McClellan-Palomar Airport in Carlsbad is closer still. Flights aren't part of the nightly rate. Guests fly in from all over the country, and being away from home is part of what makes it work. Your kitchen and your routine stay home, and every day is planned for you.
Can I come for less than a week?
Most guests stay at least a week, because day one is spent finding your starting point and the program builds from there. If you only have a few days, put your dates in the form and a program advisor will tell you what's possible.
Can I bring my partner or a friend?
Yes. Guests come with a spouse, a sister, a friend or a small group all the time. Your rate depends on how many people share a room, so tell us who's coming and we'll quote it together. Each person's training is adjusted to their own level.
I'm asking for someone I love. Can you help?
Yes. A lot of first calls come from a spouse, a parent or an adult child. Send the form with your own details, mention who it's for in the notes, and a program advisor will talk it through with you before anyone commits.
Do you help with the emotional side of weight loss?
Yes. Behavioral coaching is part of every week, led by our Behavioral Health Director, Page Lauer (MFT, CEDS). You'll work on the why behind your habits: stress, emotional eating and the routines that fall apart at home.
I have bad knees or limited mobility. Can I still come?
Yes. Trainers adjust every session to what your body can do that day, with lower-impact and pool options. Tell us about injuries, surgeries or limits when you book so the team can plan around them. If you're under a doctor's care, check with them before you come.
What happens after I go home?
You leave with a workbook and a written plan you build with the team during your stay: what to eat, how to train at home and what to do when life gets busy. Many guests come back for a week each year to reset and check their progress.
