WHAT IS IT?
During the MediSlim Plan you
will eat a variety of healthy meals designed to achieve a gradual weight
reduction while providing you with the essential nutrients you need for good
health.
WHAT IS INVOLVED?
Typically, during this program
you will lose between 2 and 4 pounds a week. It is a nutritional plan that you
can utilize to not only reach your goal weight but also to maintain your weight
loss. Working with a Nutritionalist you will assess your current eating habits
and develop a meal plan that accommodates your personal taste and desired weight
goals. The daily calorie level will be based on your specific metabolic needs
as determined by Dr. LaMond.
Dr. LaMond will determine how
often you need to be seen by him depending on your current state of health.
Medications may need to be monitored and reduced or eliminated as your health
improves and we will work closely with your Primary Care Physician or other
Medical Specialists.
You will also attend individual
and/or group education sessions where you will develop healthy eating skills,
healthy lifestyle strategy and plan for long term maintenance and avoiding
relapses.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
This plan focuses on
information presented to you in a variety of ways. Dr. LaMond reviews your
health history and complete blood work up to create a plan designed specifically
for your needs. The team uses a comprehensive approach to provide a true
education in healthy living, empowering you with the ability to make wise
choices. These everyday choices effect how your metabolism and your body
perform, so that the foods you eat and the activities you do can work to your
advantage. You will learn information on Nutrition that includes the small
differences that add up to success. You’ll have an ‘energy plan’ designed for
you regardless of your limitations or previous activity level. You’ll identify
triggers and plan responses that can greatly influence your ability to make
healthy choices.
WHY CHOOSE MEDISLIM?
While low calorie diet plans
alone can be used to reduce weight, many people become disillusioned before they
reach their goal weight. Some reduced calorie diets also reduce important
nutrients so that even though you lose weight, you are not really becoming
healthier.
By attending a structured
program your success comes from our focus on every aspect of your health. As a
comprehensive program we address the medical, nutritional, fitness and
psychological components of weight loss.
We also offer you the important
guidance that has been shown to be essential for successful weight loss and long
term maintenance. |
