Serenity Weight Loss

THE BEGINNING: Michelle and Harry Edmonds founded Serenity Weight Loss and Detoxification Program in 1992, in Hempstead, New York. The first weight loss class was held in the corner of the adjoining vegetarian restaurant, also owned by the Edmonds'. Instructions on cleansing the colon were disseminated in the center of the cafe, as patrons savored veggie burgers! Of course food would become secondary as patrons joined the conversation about detoxing the colon. Within a couple of years there were over 2,000 members. This led to the opening of 2 retail locations in New York and 2 walk-in locations in Atlanta, Ga. Eventually, as attention turned to penning the book on Serenity and nationwide participation, the program was converted to a completed web-based program. It now boasts over 15,000 clients nationwide.
