Stop Dieting to Lose Weight.
Is medical weight loss for me?
Remember when losing a few pounds was as easy as playing a couple of games of basketball, going dancing or working out at the gym? As you grow older your body begins to change and losing weight becomes more and more difficult.
If you have tried to lose weight many times and find that you continue to struggle in changing your old habits, then medical weight loss might be the solution you are looking for. Medical weight loss is a medically supervised program provided by a bariatric physician who specializes in the treatment of obesity and in methods of losing weight. At WhyDiet, we offer a customized program for those who would like to lose from 10 to 125 pounds.
Our medical and surgical program incorporates Mindful Eating techniques, nutritional education, psychology and fitness recommendations as part of our comprehensive customized program to reach an overall healthy lifestyle that helps you to keep the weight off. These programs can improve your outlook on life, how people view you and more importantly how you view yourself.
Am I a Candidate for Medical Weight Loss?
You may be a candidate for medical weight loss if you do not quality for surgical procedures or have chosen to pursue a different weight loss route. You may also be a candidate if you have had a surgical procedure, but are struggling due to metabolic or hormonal imbalances.
Typically, if your BMI is 25 or higher then medical weight loss might be right for you. If your BMI is 35 or higher, click here for more information about surgical weight loss.
It’s important to understand your personal health, family health and dietary histories. If you have any concerns Dr. Tice, our Medical Weight Loss Director in Las Vegas, can consult and explain the process necessary to get you started or you may consult your physician prior to choosing your weight loss treatment option.
