Weight loss, especially at-home weight loss, is rarely chronological. Some months you lose 15 pounds while others you plateau. Even worse, sometimes the weight comes back completely. For many people seeking weight loss programs in Michigan, gaining back weight they just lost lands a devastating blow to their self-esteem. They lose motivation and get caught up in the loop of weight cycling.
Weight cycling is the process of losing and regaining weight multiple times. Some studies suggest that weight cycling, also called “yo-yo dieting,” creates serious health problems, such as high blood pressure or heart disease.
Working toward achieving a healthy weight for your height can lower your cholesterol and blood sugar levels, lower blood pressure, reduce stress on bones and joints, and ease the workload on your heart. This is why it’s important to not only lose weight but maintain the weight loss to gain health benefits over a lifetime.
To avoid weight cycling, having a weight loss maintenance program is essential. Having a weight loss maintenance program will make sure that you are keeping the weight off for good.
We care about our patient’s quality of life, so we don’t believe in rushing through a weight loss program with no support along the way. That’s why Forum Health in Michigan includes accountability meetings twice a week in our office with our weight loss coaches and specialists.
We want to celebrate with you when you lose your first five pounds and encourage you when you haven’t noticed a difference in a few weeks. We find these conversations are truly what separate a “fad diet” from a serious weight loss program.
Having a team of medical professionals who are available to answer questions, provide supplements, recommend different exercise routines, and anything else that makes your weight loss truly your own is incredible! We have helped thousands of people in Michigan lose weight and maintain it, and we are here to help you too.
We have seen the transformative effect weight loss has on our patient’s health and confidence. We invite you to call or schedule a consultation with us today to start your weight loss journey and lose the weight once and for all!
