Why is weight loss so difficult to achieve on your own?

Weight loss is often presented as a simple mathematical equation of calories in versus calories out. 

But weight loss is anything but simple. It is a complex process that involves your unique metabolism, food choices, and health. Plus, so many so-called experts have opinions on the best way to lose weight. Fad diets are plentiful, but many are unsustainable and unhealthy.

Pathology of metabolic dysfunction includes inflammation, fat deposit, and Insulin Resistance. Therefore it is critical to adopt nutritional approaches that lead to suppressing inflammation, improving insulin sensitivity, and/or decreasing fat deposition. Consequently, the combined effects are responsible for the improvement of systemic insulin sensitivity and metabolic homeostasis.

What health issues can be improved with weight loss?

Being overweight or obese contributes to a variety of health issues. By losing weight in a safe, medically supervised way, you improve the symptoms of conditions such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease. 

If you have preexisting conditions, they’ll be monitored and managed during your weight loss process. 

How do you customize a weight-loss program?

You get a thorough assessment of your overall health and body composition using BIA (bioelectrical impedance analysis). BIA uses multi-frequency to analyze body water, protein, minerals, and fat. 

Diet composition modification, including macronutrients (carb, fat, and protein) and micronutrients (Vitamins and nutrients), are important principles in combating overweight. The team conducts an extensive review of systems involving physical and psychological health, also nutritional review, including dietary intake and analysis of your macro and micronutrients intake. The team constructs an assessment of current dietary status and provides you with diet and exercise recommendations to meet your individual needs.

This analysis provides great insight into your body size and shape. Your doctor learns your body fat percentage and waist-to-hip ratio, which helps them address weight loss and health concerns more accurately. 

Once your doctor has this information, they can recommend treatments to support your goals and health. The team at In Shape Wellness Center holds you accountable for reaching certain milestones. They use BIA to track your weight-loss progress. 

What is included in your weight-loss program?

In Shape Wellness Center helps you overcome the barriers that make it hard to lose weight. They recommend treatments to improve any underlying conditions that impede your weight-loss journey. 

The BIA technology provides valuable information about your body composition, body water ratio, and basal metabolic rate. 

This plan results in rapid weight loss that’s long-lasting. It resets your metabolism, improves body contours, decreases stored fat, and prevents the loss of muscle. 

Your weight-loss program also includes weekly fat-burning Vitamin B12 and lipotropic injections to accelerate weight loss further and decrease your appetite. 

Lipotropics (MIC) Injections, also referred to as Lipo or fat burner Injections, are used to help release fat throughout the body by specifically targeting its primary fatty deposits. Lipotropics include: inositol, which helps the liver remove fat; choline, which distributes cholesterol and prevents it from getting deposited in one part of the body; and methionine, which is similar to inositol, but also amplifies the combination. B complex and B12 injections are administered in combination with fat burner injections.

In Shape Wellness Center also provides a thorough dietary analysis that compares your current intake of calories, protein, carbohydrates, and fats to the recommended intake. This analysis also identifies any nutritional deficiencies that could be affecting your health. 

In addition to diet and nutrition, exercise, sleep health, oxygenation, microbiome, stress, and hormonal and adrenal function optimization are vital factors. Supplements and medications, and other interventions are tools used in weight management. 

Medications including GLP1 and GIP receptors activators such as Semaglutide and Tizepatide, and other weight loss medications are integrated into the weight management program for optimal results.
