Men's Medical Weight Loss Center
Aim for a Permanent Way to Lose Weight
We specialize in weight loss solutions for men. Since men have different physiological systems, medical problems, and diet preferences, we tailor our approach to these differences.
Studies indicate that only 5% of patients succeed in keeping weight off without a strategic plan.
Adults
ALL ASPECTS OF WEIGHT LOSS
The cornerstone of treatment would be on developing an individualized diet and concimitant physical activity plan based upon a person’s underlying physiology.
Seniors
A DEDICATED APPROACH
We start with a unique, very individualized diet program and physical activity plan, based on your physiology. Prescription medications and hormonal treatment is sometimes offered.
Pre-Teens
MALE PATIENTS AGED 10+
With parent supervision, we focus on diet modification, instituting a practical physical activity program, and making changes to a young person’s daily routine.
A Long-Term Solution
Weight loss is a long-term process that requires a durable strategy. For many men, losing weight is not hard but keeping it off is difficult. By developing a plan that corrects metabolism and allows it to function properly, we aim to achieve long term weight loss in our patients.
Most Diets Don't Work
Most weight loss programs fail in keeping weight off for many reasons. In many cases, people get tired of counting calories, they may feel deprived from eliminating entire food groups, or they can’t stay consistent with an exercise routine. Most importantly, however, weight loss plans make patients feel more tired and hungry, forcing them to return to their previous eating patterns. In such cases, the underlying metabolic problems were not corrected.
Determine Your Best Weight
A good weight for a person would be one that you can maintain for life and one that would best promote health and prevent chronic disease. We suggest food plans that are practical, sustainable in the long run, and best match your underlying physiology.
Weight Loss Solutions Specifically for Men
Weight loss strategies for men and women can share many similarities. There are some differences, however, such as in the area of hormonal analysis and causes. At Men’s Medical Weight Loss Center, we study where these differences may influence weight loss efforts and apply best practices with our patients.
PHASE 1
DIAGNOSIS METABOLIC ISSUES
A major barrier to weight loss may relate to a patient’s metabolic problems. Examples would be existing prediabetes, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, sleep disorders, thyroid problems, testosterone deficiency, and others. Since most men tend to have at least one of these disorders, we always begin by identifying these root metabolic causes.
PHASE 2
METABOLIC CORRECTION
We then create an eating strategy that corrects your metabolic disturbances. We take into consideration your food preferences and leverage what may have worked in the past. Our ultimate goal is to devise an eating strategy that can be used permanently.
PHASE 3
ADDITIONAL/OPTIONAL THERAPIES
Sometimes all best efforts at weight loss can fall short of achieving a healthier weight. One possible reason could be related to the presence of Testosterone Deficiency. When this is suspected, we check Testosterone levels and offer replacement to those found to be deficient. In addition, drug therapy can be helpful, especially for patients who suffer from intense carbohydrate cravings or difficulty with appetite control.
