Medical Weight Loss Management in Pflugerville, TX

Yes, there is! Medical weight loss programs are a medically assisted method of losing weight, with individualized programs for each patient.

Successful weight loss programs are about more than just self-control, many factors impact our ability to achieve our ideal weight. That is why weight loss and management programs are carefully designed to address individual needs with regular monitoring and medical assistance. Medically supervised weight loss programs are designed for clients wishing to lose 15 pounds or more, who are physiologically healthy, and who are committed and motivated to make the necessary lifestyle changes for their health and happiness. Catered to everyone’s individual needs, weight loss programs combine a low-calorie diet, nutritional supplements, and medical assistance.

Weight loss programs include:

• Medical consultation and review of expectations
• Evaluation of current lifestyle
• Goal setting
• Medical requisitions as needed
• Preliminary medical testing to establish a baseline for muscle/fat ratios, body mass index (BMI), etc.
• Bio impedance analysis
• Supplements provided to support weight loss
• Weekly visits with the last visit dedicated to maintaining weight loss – they will give tips and tools that they have found effective for clients.

While there is no one-size-fits-all initiative for weight loss, there are many effective programs available to help people lose weight. We are all aware that in order to lose weight we must burn more calories than we consume, but for some people, it is not this simple. There are many underlying conditions that can make losing weight more difficult, and in order to determine these, it is important to consult a weight loss professional.

Ideal Protein foods help to maintain muscle mass, while also teaching you how to develop smarter eating habits and lifestyle choices to maintain your weight after you’ve lost weight.
