Losing weight can seem like a daunting task, and many wonder where exactly to start. Should you focus on your diet? Should you go to the gym? How often should you work out?
Medical weight loss takes the questions out of losing weight and provides you with experienced guidance from a physician trained in nutritional wellness. But what exactly does medical weight loss mean? This article will cover medical weight loss and how it can help you to confidently embark on your weight loss journey.
Let’s get into it!
What is Medical Weight Loss?
A medical weight loss program is exactly as it sounds – a weight loss program that is designed and monitored by a medical professional who is trained in medical weight loss, also known as bariatric weight management.
Medical weight loss is designed for individuals who have a hard time losing weight and are at risk of the adverse health effects that can come with being overweight.
Some of these risks may include:
- High Cholesterol
- High Blood Pressure
- Diabetes
- Heart Disease
- Stroke
- Gallbladder Disease
- Mental Illness such as Clinical Depression
Medical weight loss programs are different from traditional weight loss programs in that they are backed by science and can only be led by physicians who have undergone extensive certification.
While there is nothing wrong with traditional weight loss programs, medical weight loss programs are considered the top-tier choice in terms of success rate and client care.
Benefits of Medical Weight Loss
Aside from looking and feeling better, there are a variety of benefits that go along with medical weight loss.
- Nutritional guidance and meal plans
- Guided workouts and physical conditioning
- Extensive weight and BMI tracking over time
- Education for making better lifestyle choices
- Better overall health (both mental and physical)
The goal of medical weight loss programs is to help you achieve a manageable long term weight that is sustainable even for those who lead busy lives. At the end of the program, you will feel confident continuing your wellness journey on your own having all the tools you need to succeed!
