What Is a Medically Monitored Weight Loss Program?

It has been proven that medically supervised weight loss is more effective than unsupervised weight loss. This is because of a few things. First, a doctor is able to identify some of the factors involved in your weight gain in the first place, and this information can help you avoid certain behaviors in the future. For instance, a patient with a weight issue might have an unhealthy habit (like sitting too long at a desk) that’s contributing to the weight issue.

Also, a doctor is able to help you recognize the many factors in healthy weight loss, such as dieting, exercise, health conditions, certain psychological factors, and others. Additionally, a doctor can support and supervise your weight loss to ensure it’s as effective and safe for you as possible. This will significantly increase your chance of success. And on top of all that, a doctor like ours here at Portsmouth Family Care will be able to provide services like fat reduction treatments and body contouring treatments that can help you after healthy weight loss.

With all of these things considered, it’s easy to make the case that weight-loss clinics really work!

In this kind of program, a medical professional will put together a comprehensive weight-loss plan for you, then support and supervise your progress! It’s true that this kind of weight loss is proven to work better than solo weight loss without support.

Each and every program is personalized for each and every patient. This means that the patient’s individual needs are taken into account, including health needs and lifestyle needs. If you need a diet full of foods that are both healthy and enjoyable for you, then the doctor will help you put one together. Or maybe you have a chronic condition like cardiovascular disease, so you need a weight-loss program that factors this in. The doctor can ensure this happens too.

Any of these needs can be factored into a comprehensive weight-loss program (with plenty of exercises!) that can be especially effective, not just in the short term to lose weight, but also in the long term to keep the weight off. The doctor will monitor your weight and help you celebrate your successes!

Here at Portsmouth Family Care, when you see our doctor they will help you define your weight-loss goal and understand the many factors involved in your weight gain and in weight loss. Then, they will put together a weight-loss program that will help you lose weight quickly and live more healthily for the rest of your life! Reach out to us today to get started.

Yes, weight loss clinics can be highly effective, especially those that offer medically supervised, personalized programs. Unlike general diet plans, these clinics often involve a team of healthcare professionals who can assess individual health conditions, create tailored plans, and provide ongoing support and accountability. This comprehensive and evidence-based approach helps many people not only lose weight safely but also develop sustainable habits for long-term weight management, addressing both physical and psychological aspects of weight loss.

At Portsmouth Family Care, for example, we offer medically supervised weight loss programs designed to help our patients achieve and maintain their goal weight.
