What is medically supervised weight loss?
Although diet and exercise solutions may provide short-term results, the majority of people end up regaining the weight. With medically supervised weight loss, you can expect long-term results that are achieved in a safe and gradual manner.
We will create a personalized weight loss plan for each person based on individual factors such as your health history, age, lifestyle, and goals which will guide you in every step of the way so that you can lose weight and learn how to keep it off.
What is included in a weight loss program?
The first step in developing a personalized weight loss program for you is a comprehensive medical exam, physical, and lab work to assess your current health and potential weight loss challenges. An electrocardiogram may also be performed to assess the health of your heart.
Your weight loss plan will also include:
Body composition analysis
You have a bio-metabolic analysis, which gives you information about your caloric requirements for weight loss. Body composition analysis can reveal changes in fat mass, muscle mass, body fat percentage, and lean body mass distribution.
Meal preparation
Natural foods and meal replacement products are included in the meal plans. We can also tailor your plan to your specific dietary preferences or needs.
All of the weight loss meal plans have been scientifically tested and nutritionally sound to assist you in reaching your weight loss goal in a healthy manner.
Medication
To achieve the best results, you may also take FDA-approved appetite suppressants, pharmaceutical-grade vitamins, or other nutritional supplements. These are optional, and doctors will prescribe them based on your specific medical condition and preferences.
Behavioral Counseling
Our experts will meet with you to discuss your progress and to assist you in navigating lifestyle or behavioral weight loss obstacles. This could include exercise recommendations, dining out tips, or social situations strategies.
What results can I expect with a weight loss program?
When it comes to the rate of weight loss, everyone is different. It is largely determined by your starting weight, age, and how well you adhere to the diet guidelines. Under the supervision of a board-certified obesity medicine team, however, you can expect to achieve your ideal body in a safe and effective manner.
