Medical weight loss is a specialized, physician-supervised program designed to help individuals achieve and maintain a healthy weight. Unlike commercial diet plans, medical weight loss programs are tailored to the unique needs of each patient, often incorporating a combination of nutritional guidance, physical activity recommendations, behavioral therapy, and, when necessary, medication or other medical interventions. At BHRT Delivered, we offer a personalized, concierge-style approach to medical weight loss, meticulously designed to align with your unique health profile. Our goal is to provide exceptional outcomes in wellness and performance, empowering you to reclaim your vitality.
One of the most significant benefits of medical weight loss is the personalized care you receive. Our programs are tailored to your specific needs, taking into account your medical history, lifestyle, and weight loss goals. This individualized approach ensures that you receive the most effective and sustainable weight loss plan.
Medical weight loss programs are supervised by healthcare professionals who can monitor your progress and make necessary adjustments to your plan. This supervision helps to ensure that you are losing weight safely and effectively.
Our medical weight loss program includes a holistic approach that addresses not only your diet but also your physical activity, behavior, and any underlying medical conditions that may be contributing to your weight gain. This comprehensive approach increases the likelihood of long-term success.
We utilize evidence-based methods and the latest research in weight management to provide you with the most effective strategies for losing weight. This includes the use of FDA-approved medications when appropriate, as well as other medical interventions that have been proven to aid in weight loss.
Losing weight through a medically supervised program can lead to significant improvements in your overall health. This includes a reduced risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension, as well as improved mental health and quality of life.
Medical weight loss is suitable for anyone who is struggling to lose weight through traditional diet and exercise methods. It is particularly beneficial for individuals who have a significant amount of weight to lose or who have underlying medical conditions that make weight loss more challenging.
If your Body Mass Index (BMI) is over 30, you may be a candidate for medical weight loss. This level of obesity is associated with a higher risk of health complications, and a medically supervised program can help you lose weight safely and effectively.
If you have health conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, or metabolic syndrome that are related to your weight, medical weight loss can help you manage these conditions and improve your overall health.
If you have tried commercial diet plans, exercise programs, or other weight loss methods without success, a medical weight loss program may provide the structured support and professional guidance you need to achieve your goals.
Medical weight loss can be an effective treatment for a variety of conditions that are related to or exacerbated by excess weight. These include:
Losing weight can help improve blood sugar control and reduce the need for diabetes medications.
Weight loss can lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke.
Losing weight can reduce the severity of sleep apnea and improve sleep quality.
Weight loss can alleviate joint pain and improve mobility, particularly in individuals with osteoarthritis.
Medical weight loss can help reverse metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions that increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
Before seeking medical weight loss treatment, there are several strategies you can try at home to begin your weight loss journey:
Focus on eating a balanced diet that includes plenty of 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, swimming, or cycling.
Identify and address any behaviors that may be contributing to your weight gain, such as emotional eating, stress eating, or eating out of boredom. Mindfulness techniques and stress management strategies can be helpful in making these changes.
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated and support your weight loss efforts.
Ensure you are getting enough sleep each night, as poor sleep can contribute to weight gain and make it more difficult to lose weight.
At BHRT Delivered, we follow a thorough process to determine if you are a candidate for our medical weight loss program:
Your journey begins with an initial consultation, during which we will discuss your weight loss goals, medical history, and any previous weight loss attempts. This helps us understand your unique needs and challenges.
We conduct a comprehensive assessment that includes a physical examination, lab tests, and possibly other diagnostic tests to evaluate your overall health and identify any underlying conditions that may be contributing to your weight gain.
Based on the results of your assessment, we develop a personalized weight loss plan tailored to your specific needs. This plan may include dietary recommendations, exercise guidelines, behavioral therapy, and, if appropriate, medications or other medical interventions.
Throughout your weight loss journey, we provide ongoing support and monitoring to ensure you are making progress and to make any necessary adjustments to your plan. Regular check-ins with our healthcare team help keep you on track and address any challenges you may encounter.
Once you have achieved your weight loss goals, we work with you to develop a long-term maintenance plan to help you keep the weight off and continue to improve your overall health and well-being.
