Fort Worth, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/03/2014 -- Thinique Medical Weight Loss CEO/Founder Cris Cawley, announced today the awarding of the Manhattan and Nassau County Regions of New York to Jeff Neckonoff, a local entrepreneur and fitness and wellness enthusiast. Thinique currently has 17 open units with an additional 221 in development throughout the United States and is positioned for tremendous growth in the coming 12-24 months.

“We are excited to add Jeff Neckonoff to our Thinique family and look forward to opening the New York Region as our first East Coast locations,” says Thinique founder Cris Cawley. “Jeff’s dedication, ethics and community pride exemplify Thinique’s core values.”

Jeff Neckonoff has been a successful business owner in the New York area since 1993, and is well known and loved throughout the community for his entertainment industry productions and events. Jeff, like thousands of other New Yorkers, has personally fought his own weight battles and recognizes the need for a program that helps people transition to healthier lifestyles long term. As a Long Island resident, Jeff is very active in the local community along with his wife Maria, a fulltime teacher, two teenage children and one very special dog.

“While looking for a viable franchise opportunity that empowers people to take control of their own health and longevity.” Neckonoff says. “Thinique was the ONLY business out there that had all the prerequisites I was looking for. I was pleasantly surprised to find a transparent, honest and top notch management team at corporate headquarters. My goal is to open at least twenty Thinique franchises in the next couple of years. With the rampant obesity problem in the United States and especially here in New York, Thinique fits the needs of busy people who want and need to lose weight and get healthy.” Neckonoff adds, “ I am particularly excited about the Thinique MD Program which can be seamlessly integrated into existing physician practices, networks and hospitals. This expands the possibilities for me as Regional Developer and gets me even more excited about launching the Thinique concept in New York.”
