Understanding Medical Weight Loss

Medical weight loss is a provider-supervised program that uses lab testing, personalized nutrition, lifestyle coaching and, when appropriate, prescription medication to help you lose weight safely and keep it off. At Today’s Integrative Health, we start by testing your metabolism, thyroid, hormones and blood sugar to uncover barriers to weight loss. Your provider then designs a plan around your body, schedule and food preferences, with regular check-ins to track body composition and adjust as you progress.

What Our Weight Loss Program Addresses

Our medical weight loss program is designed for people dealing with:

  • Stubborn weight gain and weight loss plateaus
  • Insulin resistance and prediabetes
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • PCOS-related weight gain
  • Menopause and hormone-related weight gain
  • Thyroid-related weight changes
  • Emotional and stress eating
  • High blood pressure and high cholesterol
  • Joint pain made worse by excess weight
  • Weight regain after past diets

Your Biology. Your Plan.

Weight Loss Q & A

How does medical weight loss work?

Medical weight loss works by treating the medical reasons behind weight gain, not just cutting calories. Your provider reviews your labs, health history and habits, then combines a personalized nutrition plan, activity guidance and behavior coaching. When appropriate, prescription medications such as GLP-1s are added. Regular visits keep you accountable and on track.

Why haven't diets worked for me?

Most diets fail because they ignore your biology. Hormone imbalances, insulin resistance, thyroid issues, poor sleep and chronic stress can all slow your metabolism and increase hunger. Very low calorie diets can also trigger your body to hold on to fat. Our program finds and addresses these barriers so results last.

Am I a candidate for weight loss medication?

You may be a candidate for prescription weight loss medication if your BMI is 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure or prediabetes. Your provider reviews your health history and labs to decide if medication is safe and appropriate for you.

How much weight can I expect to lose?

Results vary, but many patients lose 1 to 2 pounds per week on a structured medical program, and those on GLP-1 medication often lose 10 to 15 percent of their body weight over a year. Your provider sets realistic goals and tracks body composition, not just the scale.
