What are the components of a medical weight loss program?

Part of the allure of medical weight loss is that no two programs are exactly alike. Based entirely on your own needs and preferences, your medical weight loss program at ENLYV ME starts with a detailed 60-minute initial visit that includes a body composition analysis. 

Your provider then develops your plan using strategies like:

• Medication management
• Nutrition counseling
• Full or partial meal replacements
• Mindfulness training
• Purposeful eating

Throughout your program, you visit ENLYV ME twice a month. Once a month, your provider uses body composition analysis to measure your progress. You’ll also use a mindful weight loss app to update your provider between visits. 

What are the advantages of medical weight loss?

If you’ve tried other weight loss strategies without success, perhaps it’s time to try medical weight loss instead. Medical weight loss offers several key advantages over other approaches like fad diets or supplements. 

Some medical weight loss benefits to consider are as follows.

Individualization

Not many weight loss options aside from medical weight loss take your personal needs into account. Your provider at ENLYV ME designs your program based on your current habits and preferences using nutrition, behavior, physical activity, and medication. 

An evidence-based approach

Medical weight loss is also based on science, and your plan is dynamic based on your evolving needs. That’s why ENLYV ME relies on testing strategies like body composition analysis and ongoing tracking. 

Mindfulness strategies

Your provider at ENLYV ME teaches you to practice mindfulness so you can manage your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors around eating. 

Am I a good candidate for medical weight loss?

Medical weight loss may be a great option for lasting weight loss results, but even this science-backed strategy isn’t for everyone. ENLYV ME helps you decide whether to proceed with medical weight loss during your initial consultation. 

You might benefit from medical weight loss if you:

• Have a body mass index (BMI) of over 30
• Have health issues linked to obesity (e.g., diabetes, high blood pressure)
• Can consistently follow your program
• Are ready to make lifelong changes to improve your health

Your provider also checks to make sure you don’t have any medical conditions preventing you from taking recommended weight-loss medications or following your program in any way.
