Signs It's Time to Consider a Medically Supervised Weight Loss Program

Losing weight is one of the toughest things you’ll ever do — even if you consider yourself reasonably motivated and committed to the process. 

The problem is that too many variables are involved in dropping excess pounds, and no two bodies are alike. Diet and exercise are standard for everyone trying to lose weight, but beyond that, there are multiple factors that influence when, where, and how your body burns fat. 

If you don’t or can’t identify your personal roadblocks to weight loss, you’ll be stymied and frustrated for years. 

Dr. Asif Aziz at Prestige Primary Care, P.A., specializes in determining why your body holds extra fat stores and helping you unlock the gates of weight loss. Here’s how our program works and how to spot the signs that it might be time to give it a try.

Medically supervised weight loss is better than going it alone

The Prestige Primary Care medically supervised weight loss program is our comprehensive approach to shedding pounds under Dr. Aziz’s careful eyes. We combine professional nutrition and fitness advice based on your unique metabolic makeup and overall health to create a personalized plan tailored to your needs.

Our medical supervision is the primary advantage over DIY diets. We monitor your progress, adjust your plan along the way, and ensure that your weight loss is safe and effective. 

When is it time to consider medically supervised weight loss?

It seems simple: Eat less and exercise more. But if that formula isn’t working for you, you’re not alone. Nearly half of all American adults struggle to shed pounds, so they desperately attempt any new diet or exercise equipment they find. 

There has to be a better way!

There is: medically supervised weight loss. Here are the signs it’s time to check it out.

Diet and exercise don’t work for you

Have you tried multiple diets, exercise routines, and even some trendy weight loss fads without seeing long-term success? Persistent struggles with weight loss could mean that you need a more structured and professional approach.

Our medically supervised weight loss program is about more than losing weight; it's about doing it in a sustainable way that promotes overall health.

You have health concerns related to being overweight 

Carrying extra weight can lead to a host of health problems, including diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension — these are clear signs you need to take weight loss to the next level. We help you manage these conditions while losing weight.

Being overweight is causing an emotional and psychological impact

Weight issues often come with emotional and psychological baggage. If you feel overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious about your weight, our medically supervised program offers comprehensive support that ensures success, eases your mind, and boosts your confidence.

You can lose weight but can’t keep it off

Yo-yo dieting can be frustrating and demoralizing. If you’ve lost weight only to regain it repeatedly, our medically supervised program helps you break this cycle.

Dr. Aziz provides insights into why you’re regaining weight and helps you develop strategies to maintain your achievements. 

You need a personalized approach

Everyone’s body is different. What works for someone else might not work for you. If standard diets and exercise plans aren’t effective, you might benefit from our personalized approach.

Our medically supervised program considers your unique metabolism, lifestyle, and health needs. 

You need medical intervention

Sometimes, lifestyle changes alone aren’t enough. If you have a medical condition that makes weight loss difficult, medications or other medical interventions might be necessary.

Dr. Aziz ensures you use these treatments safely, especially if you have conditions like thyroid disorders or insulin resistance.

You need support and accountability

One of the biggest challenges in weight loss is staying motivated. Without support, it’s easy to fall back into old habits. 

Our medically supervised program provides ongoing support and accountability, regular check-ins to keep you on track, emotional encouragement, and plan adjustments. We also love to celebrate your successes with you.

You’re looking for comprehensive nutritional guidance

Given the conflicting information out there, understanding what to eat can be confusing. Dr. Aziz helps you develop a balanced eating plan that meets your nutritional needs while promoting weight loss. Bonus: We can also address any nutrient deficiencies you may have.

You hate exercising

Exercise is crucial to weight loss, but where do you start? 

Right here. We take the guesswork out of workouts and develop a plan that fits your fitness level and progresses as you become stronger. 

Weight loss isn’t a one-size-fits-all endeavor and isn’t a straight path. To navigate the way to success, call Prestige Primary Care, P.A., in Dallas, Texas, or book online.
