Weight loss is not known for its ease, but rather for its importance to overall health. If you need to lose a significant amount of weight in order to minimize your risk of chronic disease and regain your quality of life, you may be wondering where to begin or how to overcome a challenge that you have hit in the past. Fortunately, there is a viable solution that can help you reach your goals in a sustainable way: medically supervised weight loss.
What is Medically Supervised Weight Loss?
Medically supervised weight loss is guided and supported by an experienced and specially trained physician who understands that weight loss involves far more than a decrease in caloric intake. Dr. Hermann at Hermann Aesthetics & Wellness in Tampa, Florida, for instance, has been helping patients lose weight for more than ten years by creating a tailored plan for each patient that includes a customized meal routine, vitamin therapy, behavioral therapy, and prescription medications as needed.
What Are the Keys to Long-Term Weight Loss Success?
The first step to sustainable weight loss is to identify and stick to an eating plan that supplies the right amount of calories for your body size, energy use, and weight loss needs.This isn’t just about cutting calories, but about learning to feed and nourish your body in a way that is satisfying, healthy, and effective. Some people opt for customized meal planning in order to cook and prepare their own meals at home, while others prefer Optifast Full Meal or Partial Meal Replacement to minimize the margin of error.
The next step to true weight loss involves lifestyle education and behavior changes that will support your weight loss goals. You will work with a professional to prevent emotional eating and overeating, practice the art of mindful eating, identify triggers that lead you to eat unnecessarily, and build more physical activity into your lifestyle.
Finally, weight loss is also made possible using strategic vitamin therapy and prescription appetite suppressants as needed. MIC B injections, for example, can help you lose weight by increasing your energy levels, stimulating your metabolism, and helping the body achieve a better sense of balance. Belviq, on the other hand, is a prescription medication that activates serotonin receptors in the brain to increase feelings of fullness after eating smaller amounts of food.
