Why is weight loss crucial to health?

Weight loss is vital if you exceed the guidelines for a healthy weight because all the excess fat puts an intolerable strain on your body. From your joints to your spine, your internal organs to your muscles and skin, every part of you becomes overloaded if you carry too much weight.

Obesity (being severely overweight) can lead to potentially life-threatening heart disease and diabetes. In fact, it causes or worsens many of the most widespread and disabling illnesses in the United States today.

Will I ever succeed with weight loss?

Very few people find it easy to lose weight, so if you’re having problems sticking to a diet, you’re not the only one. It helps to know how to lose weight without using so-called miracle weight loss cures and other systems that aren’t good for your health. Support and guidance to keep you motivated is also essential.

The Paramount Health Directions team provides all the help you need to ensure you stick to a healthy eating plan throughout the medical weight loss program. You can also take advantage of their medical expertise to make dieting easier.

For example, you may have difficulty losing weight because of an underlying hormonal condition like hypothyroidism or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). These conditions make weight loss harder to achieve and increase your risk of gaining weight.

Your specialist completes a physical exam, discusses your medical history and symptoms, and orders lab testing to detect or rule out potential health problems.

The health checks Paramount Health Directions completes before designing your weight loss plan ensure you receive treatment for these disorders, such as bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).

What treatments help with medical weight loss?

Weight loss requires reduced energy intake and increased energy output in other words, you need to consume fewer calories and burn more off with exercise. While this is simple enough to say, many things can complicate the process.

For example, your genetic makeup, lifestyle, food, activity preferences, mental health, and other factors all influence your weight.

At Paramount Health Directions, your provider designs a medical weight loss plan to meet your exact needs, which could include some or all of the following:

  • Nutrition counseling and cooking classes
  • Dietary supplement review
  • Exercise plan
  • Weight loss medications (semaglutide or tirzepatide)
  • Intravenous (IV) vitamin therapy
  • Regular progress reviews

Weight loss medications help reduce your appetite to kickstart weight loss without feeling hungry or deprived.
