Medically Monitored Weight Loss

January is almost gone, but that does not mean your resolutions should be too! If your resolutions for 2020 are to lose weight, improve your energy levels, or simply get healthier, we have you covered. 

 Med First’s weight loss program makes it easy for you to get started, stay motivated, and reach your wellness goals.  Our program includes multiple techniques and strategies to help you reach your weight loss goals, including dietary therapy, recommendations on physical activity, behavior therapy, pharmacotherapy, and other medical options.

Here are 4 ways the Med First medically monitored program can help you lose weight:

1. We can help you find the most sensible diet to fit your needs

Many diets on the Internet sound great but don’t take into account medical conditions like high cholesterol or diabetes. At Med First, our Healthcare Providers take into account your medical history, lifestyle, and caloric intake when recommending a diet for you. We know one diet does not fit all. People metabolize food differently and each body is unique.

2. We offer motivation and coaching

Weight loss is a mental challenge. Many behaviors such as anxiety, depression, and stress can lead to weight gain and bad eating habits. We can help you target habits and create a plan of action to improve behaviors by setting specific goals that include everything from dieting to physical activity planning. We measure your results, track progress, and give you the motivation to continue towards your goal.

3. We provide you with medical options

An adequate diet and regular physical activity are essential for weight loss. However, in many cases, there are medical options that might be beneficial. Prescription weight loss medications can help you reach your weight loss goals if you are a good candidate for them. Our Healthcare Providers can guide and advise you on the option that is best for you.

4. We can help you see results

When you have been trying to lose weight and have not seen any results, it is important to check with a Healthcare Provider. There may be a medical reason, like an overactive thyroid, a hormone imbalance, or even certain vitamin deficiencies.
