Medical weight loss can effectively manage and even improve a variety of health conditions, including:
Before seeking medical weight loss, consider implementing the following lifestyle changes:
Focus on a balanced diet rich in whole foods, including fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Avoid processed foods, sugary drinks, and excessive amounts of unhealthy fats.
Incorporate regular physical activity into your routine. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week, such as brisk walking, cycling, or swimming.
Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Sometimes, thirst can be mistaken for hunger, leading to unnecessary snacking.
Ensure you get adequate sleep each night. Poor sleep can disrupt hormones that regulate hunger and appetite, making weight loss more challenging.
Practice mindful eating by paying attention to hunger and fullness cues. Avoid distractions like television or smartphones during meals to prevent overeating.
At First Call DPC, we follow a thorough process to determine if you are a candidate for medical weight loss:
Your journey begins with an initial consultation where we discuss your medical history, weight loss goals, and any previous attempts at weight loss. This helps us understand your unique needs and challenges.
We conduct a comprehensive assessment that includes blood tests, body composition analysis, and metabolic rate testing. This data provides valuable insights into your health and helps us tailor a personalized weight loss plan.
Based on the assessment results, we develop a personalized weight loss plan that may include dietary changes, exercise recommendations, and medical treatments such as GLP-1 agonists or hormone optimization.
Throughout your weight loss journey, you’ll have continuous support from our healthcare team. Regular check-ins, progress tracking, and adjustments to your plan ensure you stay on track and achieve your goals.
Once you achieve your weight loss goals, we help you transition to a maintenance plan to ensure long-term success. This includes ongoing support and periodic check-ins to prevent weight regain.
