Losing weight isn’t easy, but there’s no denying the benefits are well worth it. In fact, losing extra pounds decreases the risks of serious health conditions like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and heart disease. Plus, it gives you more energy and helps you feel more confident.
Unfortunately, while some diets may help you lose some weight initially, many people find those results challenging to maintain in the long run, regaining the weight they’ve lost and sometimes more. While it’s easy to blame yourself for weight-loss failure, often, it’s the diet to blame.
At Health Meets Wellness, our team offers a comprehensive and customized weight-management program focused on helping everyone achieve and maintain their healthy weight-loss goals. Here’s why our program works when other diets fail.
While commercial diet plans may work for some people, they have significant flaws that make them impractical. The main problem is that they are designed for the general public and based on very broad principles of weight loss.
Weight management is actually highly variable and based on many factors that differ from one person to the next. Without tailoring a weight-management plan to those factors, you’re setting yourself up for failure from the beginning.
For instance, a commercial diet plan isn’t going to consider:
To succeed, weight-management plans need to consider all these factors.
In fact, even when a commercial or “fad” diet plan helps you shed pounds initially, there’s a good chance you’ll gain weight again. That’s because unless your individual factors are considered, the results of any weight-loss plan are difficult to sustain for the long term.
Medical weight loss offers long-term results because it’s designed for you from the very beginning.
Before we even begin developing a weight-management plan, you meet with your doctor, dietitian, and health coach.
We perform a physical evaluation and exam, including body composition analysis, strength testing, and lab tests, to look for nutritional deficiencies or other underlying health issues that could hinder long-term weight management.
Next, we collaborate with you to develop your personalized plan, which might include:
We also offer a digital platform featuring activities you can do at home or on the go, such as exercises, yoga, and meditation, along with healthy meal plans to make following your plan easy.
Plus, our team offers complete follow-up and support during your weight-loss journey, providing you with tips, education, guidance, and motivation to keep you focused and on track. Best of all, you can have your follow-up visits in our office or via telehealth for maximum convenience.
Losing weight and keeping it off offers benefits for your appearance, health, confidence, and overall quality of life.
