About 50% of adults in the United States make attempts at losing weight every year. Despite these efforts and desires, a large percentage of adults continue to carry too much unhealthy weight.

Weight loss on your own is possible, but going it alone can make things harder. 

At Weston Medical Health & Wellness in Weston, Florida, our medical director, Dr. Andrea Bretal specializes in weight loss for overweight and obesity, utilizing a combination of traditional medical interventions and complementary therapies to help our patients achieve their ultimate health and weight goals.

Here, we want to share some of the benefits you receive when you seek weight-loss support instead of going out on your own.

1. A personalized plan

If there’s one thing we’ve learned over the years about weight loss it’s that there’s no one best plan that works for everyone. People who try to lose weight on their own do so by exercising more and eating less. Though these are the foundations of any good weight-loss program, it’s not always effective. 

Weight and weight loss is complex, and many factors are at play, like genetics, eating habits, gut health, and hormones. When you get professional medical support for weight loss, you get a plan designed for you, taking all the factors that influence your weight into consideration.

2. Ongoing support

Weight loss is a journey filled with diversions and twists and turns. Without the right help and support, you may fall victim to the pitfalls of the weight-loss journey and end your trip.

But with professional help, you get the support and guidance you need to keep going. Our weight-loss specialists expect the ups and downs and can help you work your way through it and develop strategies so you can manage the diversions on your own.

3. Help with lifestyle changes

Creating a healthy lifestyle is key for long-term weight management. But this requires a change in habits, which takes time. 

With weight-loss support, we provide the tools you need to create the habits that lead to long-term success. We can help you make small, manageable changes to your diet and exercise routine to support your efforts. 

We also recommend other lifestyle changes that benefit your weight and health, like prioritizing sleep and finding healthy ways to deal with stress. 

4. A weight-maintenance plan

Shedding those unwanted pounds is only the beginning of your weight-management journey, and sometimes the easiest part. When you seek weight-loss support, you get a plan that helps you maintain your new weight.

It starts with the behavior and lifestyle changes, but also includes a realistic eating and exercise plan that fits your lifestyle.

5. Weight-loss medications

Hunger can sabotage weight loss and weight maintenance. If your appetite and food cravings make it hard for you to stick with your balanced eating plan, then we can prescribe weight-loss medications to help control hunger. These drugs make you feel less hungry and help you feel full faster, making it easier to eat less.

We offer phentermine, an oral weight-loss drug that’s been available for decades. We can talk to you about other weight-loss medications and how they work too.

Seeking support can help you finally get off the weight-loss roller coaster. We can help you on your health journey. Give our office a call at 954-389-1800 or request an appointment online.
