Kick Off the New Year in Tampa with Elite Care Personalized Weight Management
Most people struggle to lose weight through diet and exercise and face continuing challenges in managing a healthy weight when they reach it. Genetics can affect metabolism, appetite, and fat storage, while busy schedules make it difficult to exercise and plan and prepare healthy meals. Conflicting information about diet and exercise can encourage people to try ineffective weight management strategies, and failure to reach goals causes frustration and abandonment of efforts. Medical conditions and physical limitations can hinder exercise initiatives, and certain medications can stimulate weight gain. With so many challenges to effective weight management, what’s a person to do?
In the Tampa, Florida, area, Health + Glow’s primary care clinic offers personalized weight management as an add-on service in its new Elite Care program. This recently launched program personalizes primary care to proactively address each patient’s unique health profile, medical needs, and lifestyle to help meet their distinct health goals. If partaking in an effective weight management strategy in the Tampa area is one of your health goals for the coming year, this Elite Care add-on service might be perfect for you. Let’s examine the benefits of personalized weight management under the supervision of a physician and how it meshes with our Elite Care program.
Combines Medical Expertise with an Individualized Approach
While most diet and exercise regimens are generically tailored to serve the population at large, personalized weight management with a physician strategizes a patient-specific approach to help achieve sustainable weight loss goals. Health + Glow’s personalized weight management services with Elite Care begin with an assessment of the patient’s medical history, existing conditions, and medications that might influence metabolism or weight fluctuations. We perform diagnostic testing to determine whether hormone levels and metabolic rate might affect the patient’s weight and identify any weight-related health risks that may need to be addressed.
Based on this initial work, we develop a patient-specific weight management plan to holistically achieve weight loss goals and enhance patient health. This includes nutrition counseling that accounts for metabolism, health needs, and patient preferences and an exercise regimen that accounts for the patient’s fitness level, medical conditions, and weight loss goals. We may also offer the patient specific FDA-approved weight-loss medications—such as semaglutide—to enhance weight loss results achieved by our diet and exercise plan.
Our personalized weight management service is ongoing with a focus on long-term success. Through regular checkups, we monitor patient weight management results and overall health to ensure our efforts are working and make modifications as needed. When patients reach a plateau before achieving their goals, we can identify the cause and adjust the management strategy to get the patient back on track toward reaching their goal. As needed, we also help patients by offering psychological support to address stress, emotional eating, and other mental factors that may be impeding weight loss efforts.
Health + Glow physicians and staff are committed to being invaluable partners in each of our patients’ weight management journeys. Our multi-faceted, holistic approach has helped many patients in the Tampa area achieve their weight loss goals and improve their overall health.
