Who is a good candidate for Debra Stefan’s Adult Weight Loss Camp?

A good candidate is coachable, willing to train daily, and ready to adopt new habits in a private residential environment. If you can commit to accountability and follow structured routines, you will succeed here.

How long should I stay at the adult weight loss camp?

A minimum of 30 days produces the best long-term results. Thirty days gives you time to establish consistent habits, adapt to the daily structure, and build the lifestyle you will maintain at home.

What is a typical day like at the camp?

Training takes place both indoors and outdoors on the property, including the sports court and private paved trail. Activities vary based on ability and may include strength training, mobility work, biking, jump rope drills, and supervised meal preparation.

What kind of food will I eat during the program?

Meals are based on whole foods, grass-fed beef, free range chicken, wild caught fish, and organic produce. Groceries are provided, and you prepare meals under supervision so you can continue the same habits at home.

Do I prepare my own meals?

Yes. You prepare meals under supervision in the home kitchen. This teaches real-life skills you’ll rely on after your stay so the results continue long after you return home.

How much exercise will I do each day?

Most guests train up to 3–4 hours per day depending on capability. Workouts are scaled for beginners, older adults, and guests with orthopedic limitations, including joint replacements and mobility challenges. Emphasis is on rest and recovery after workouts.

What are the accommodations like?

Guest rooms are private bedrooms in a real home. Two optional private suites include private baths for an additional fee. The residence overlooks a golf course with expansive desert and mountain views.

How many guests stay at one time?

An average of one to three guests stay at the residence. Debra is the sole trainer-host, and privacy is fully protected. No staff, teams, or outside visitors enter the home during your stay.

Why isn’t the residence open to the public?

The retreat operates under a non-commercial business license inside a gated residential community. For client safety and privacy, the location is not open for public tours and is not listed on Google Places.

What happens during the introductory phone consultation?

We discuss your goals, mobility, medical restrictions, schedule, and expectations. This ensures you are a good fit for the program and confirms your readiness for a structured, residential fitness experience.

His reason for coming to the mens fitness retreat in Las Vegas was to fight cancer and live another year. Please honor and read his story to be inspired by a 53-year-old man whose life touched so many depending on him. His two adult daughters, brother, mother, and dozens of employees give him enough reasons to fight with all he could.

“Hi this is Tony McConaghy. In October of 2012 I spent 28 days with Debra Stefan. I stayed at her beautiful home in Henderson, Nevada. I went to the fitness camp after having rods placed in my back in April of 2011. By September of the same year I had started having pains in my body, and on December 26th I found out I had cancer, and started chemo for the next six months. I also had a stroke in May of last year that took out half of my eyesight. I recovered from the stroke and I am cancer free for now.

I called Debra… When I got to her place I could hardly walk up to the second floor.

In September I called Debra and decided to go to her mens fitness retreat in October. When I got to her place I could hardly walk up to the second floor. I think Debra helped me recover stronger then ever. I lift 5 to 6 days a week and feel great. I feel I have a new lease on life and thank you Debra.”

During his 4-week stay in Las Vegas, he still had the chemo port in his chest.

He told the doctor he didn’t want to delay rebuilding his body another day, so the port removal had to wait. He loaded up his bicycle and headed to Southern Nevada to the men’s fitness retreat in Las Vegas. Cycling, weight lifting and daily outdoor adventures lifted his spirits in the sunshine. There has never been a more motivated client at the mens fitness camp and his enthusiasm was contagious. The other men worked hard alongside their comrade whose inner strengths fortified every effort. Learn about the Morbid Obesity Weight Loss Camp for Men
