What is medical weight loss?

Medical weight loss involves a weight-management plan that is catered to your unique needs. Although nearly 30% of adults in the United States attempt to lose weight with fad diets, supplements, products, and exercise, many are unsuccessful because they approach their goals in the wrong way or with a narrow view of what weight loss involves. 

Medical weight-loss plans are multifaceted, meaning that they use many approaches to reach the same goal: sustainable weight loss. 

At Southern Nevada Bariatrics, the team monitors your progress with regular appointments and makes adjustments to your weight-loss plan when necessary. 

Health and Medical Weight Loss

As the most successful mode of weight loss that doesn’t involve surgery, medical weight loss is safer than other modes of weight loss because a physician puts the plan together for you and monitors your progress. 

You also have the opportunity to ask your doctor questions about your plan as they arise to make sure you’re following it correctly.

In general, losing weight helps prevent many chronic health conditions and diseases. If you have less fat on your body, you have a lower chance of getting:

  • Diabetes
  • Sleep apnea
  • Arthritis and other joint pain
  • High blood pressure 
  • High cholesterol
  • Heart disease
  • Stroke
  • Some types of cancer
