Our Approach to Weight Management

woman-106424088-webYes, you know how to lose weight…eat less and exercise more, right. Or maybe just look up a diet on the internet–Paleo is popular, Atkins may have worked for you before….Nutrasystem….. Slimfast. But if dieting worked for long term weight loss, shouldn’t we all be thin?

Our approach is not about “getting thin”man-138187458-web— It’s about getting healthy so that you can live your life the way you want to. Weight management is part of “Lifestyle Medicine” and it is powerfully effective for increasing your energy, reducing aches and pains, and avoiding chronic diseases. And yet, making lasting changes to how you eat and fitting in more physical activity can be very challenging.

The truth is that it’s hard to make the changes that lead to permanent weight loss.
