How To Choose a Weight Loss Diet Doctor in Philadelphia and Bucks County PA
Fast weight loss seems to be difficult for most people especially for those who exercise six or seven days a week or if they are following one of the latest fad diet plans and still have not seen any real weight loss. So the question is how do you lose your weight and achieve your goals without having to try the latest and greatest diet or exercise plans?
Our medical weight loss clinic might be the answer to your needs. We offer safe and effective medical weight loss programs that will have you eating real food that is actually tasty. No one hates the cardboard tasting diet foods more than I do. Our goal is to help you achieve your weight loss goals and finally be able to keep the weight off long-term.
The difference between our medical weight loss program when compared to other programs is that you will actually see a medical physician who will evaluate you and together will determine the best plan for you. And we do mean that we will determine the plan together with you because if you are not agreeable with the plan that we have set out for you, . there is no way that you are going to do it.
So after your initial consultation and evaluation we will develop the plan of course taking into consideration your goals, your current physical and health condition and taking into account any other health issues that you might have.
We have found that the easiest way for our patients to lose weight and have the most success is to start the program with our weight loss tablet appetite suppressant medications. The primary medication that we use has been around for many, many years. And in our experience has been the safest and most effective weight loss medication.
These medications will help keep your hunger and appetite in check that way you are able to make the right food choices. The problem that we find is that most people are hungry and when they are hungry they eat the first thing in the fastest thing that they can get their hands on. Sadly often times this is a cake are a candy bar. And foods such as these have been no nutritional value. They only give your body an overloaded burst of sugar which can increase your insulin levels and when your insulin levels are increased anything that you are eating during that time period is going to be stored as fat.
That is why our patients using our weight loss tablets are very successful. Their appetite is under control and they follow the food recommendations that we have given them. In a way this is a type of behavioral modification therapy. We have you eating foods at certain times throughout the course of the day and this helps keep your appetite at bay and also keeps your insulin level throughout the day as well. This will also help in keeping your hormones balance. Hormones are especially important for females.
This is especially true if you are approaching or are in the menopause phases of your life. And from our personal experience with our male patients men over the age of 40 have almost as much is a difficult time with weight loss as do females. It seems that it really doesn’t matter if you are a man or a woman over the age of 40 everyone seems to be having issues with hormones these days. And with all of the current advancements in nutrition it is possible to help people with hormonal issues just by changing their diet. It can be that easy.
We do not believe in very low calorie diets. Now I do acknowledge that there are many weight loss clinics and diet doctors in the Philadelphia and Bucks County regions that have their patients doing very low calorie diets. We have seen patients from other weight loss clinics and these people have been trying to maintain a 500 calorie a day diet. We do not believe in 500 cal a day diets. Your body needs food. Your body needs calories from good healthy nutrient dense food. In fact most of our patients cannot believe that on our medically supervised weight loss program they are actually eating more food and losing weight. Compared to when they were starving themselves and not losing weight.
So to recap everything when you come into our weight loss program you are going to see a medical doctor. You are going to have a complete evaluation and consultation and together we will decide the best program for you. Normally patients do start on our appetite suppressant weight loss medication program that also includes an energy boosting vitamin B12 shot as well as a custom diet and exercise program.
To see if our program is right for you call us for free consultation. Call us at 215-821-7336
Just ask for Elyse or Michael and they will be glad to answer all of your questions.

Medical Weight Loss Tips by Medical Weight Loss Philadelphia
Often times achieving your weight loss goal can be very very difficult. So much so that over the course of time you may just have had enough and throw the towel into the ring. I find that this happens usually when people do not have a solid plan for losing their weight. In this article I’m going to review a few steps to assist you in achieving your weight loss goals.
Tip 1: Forget about dieting. In order to lose weight and keep it off for the rest of your life you have to make lifestyle changes. Sadly I see in my office all of the time people go up and down losing weight and gaining weight because they go on fad diets. People come to me and tell me that they have tried juice diets, fruit diets, high protein diets, etc. and the problem is that they usually gain all of the way back after losing it. So this is why you really do have to make lifestyle changes. Just take one day at a time and try to follow your plan as best as you can. If you make a mistake it’s no big deal. Because this is about making changes that will give you a healthier life and make you skinnier for the rest of your life.
Tip 2: make a plan on how you intend to lose the weight and determie how much weight you really need to lose. You have to have a specific plan if you want to lose weight. Without a plan or a playbook even the best football teams do not succeed.
Tip 3: do not weigh yourself each and every day. Your weight actually does fluctuate throughout the course of the day. Depending on how much liquid you drink and the amount of food you eat during the day you can gain as much as 5 pounds just from all of the food and beverages that you consumed during the course of the day.
Of course the next morning you will go back to your normal body weight if you followed your weight loss plan. Especially with females depending on the time of the month your body weight can vary as much as 7 pounds depending on the time of the month. I usually recommend that you weigh yourself once a week but if you are the type of person that needs to weigh yourself constantly I would say weigh yourself once every other day or every three days.
Tip 4: make sure you are drinking at least 64 ounces of water each and every day. Drinking water decreases your appetite and helps flush toxins and dead cells out of your body. I also suggest that you should drink at least three glasses of ice water every day. This creates a thermogenic effect because your body has to raise its temperature in order to return your body to a normal temperature. Drinking water also increases your overall health.
Tip 5: do not starve yourself. You have to eat small frequent meals throughout the day. I usually suggest that most people eat breakfast within an hour of waking up and that there breakfast consists of good healthy protein, good healthy fats like in avocado or flaxseed or Chia seeds or flax oil were avocados and even a little bit of carbohydrates healthy carbohydrates. And I am just going to remind you that a sugar jelly donut is not a healthy carbohydrate. After breakfast it is a good idea to make sure that you eat some type of protein every 3 – 4 hours.
Tip 6: do not torture yourself. Let’s be real here there are going to be days when you really have cravings for a certain type of food that may not be totally conducive to your weight loss program. I have found that if you are having uncontrollable urges to eat a type of food let’s say for example chocolate that it is always best to have a small portion of that food. So if you are craving chocolate treat yourself to a really good chocolate. Break off a small piece of the chocolate and savor it. Do not gobble it down like you have never eaten before. Let the flavor of the chocolate tantalize your taste buds and do not feel guilty about enjoying it. Please just be sure that you do not eat a pound of chocolate. Just give yourself a small portion as a treat.
Tip 7: snack frequently. Make sure that you have good healthy treats to snack on throughout the course of the day. These include cheesesteaks, almonds, cashews, and my favorite vegetables. Vegetables are the greatest snack that you can have throughout the day to make you healthy and make you skinny.
Tip 8: get a partner. It’s always easiest to accomplish your weight loss goals when you were doing it with a buddy. In our medical weight loss office it is quite common for us to treat family members, coming in at the same time, spouses coming in to lose weight together, coworkers and friends. It’s always a good idea to have someone that you could lean on for support when you need it and hold you accountable to your daily routines that you establish to help you achieve your weight loss goals.
I hope you found these weight loss tips helpful.

Getting your holiday body does not mean you have to starve yourself and cut out all of the good foods that you enjoy eating. In order to maintain your weight loss you still have to eat some of the foods that you really like what you also have to eat good healthy foods as well.
Here are some healthy eating weight loss tips to get your body ready for the holidays fast.
Make sure you drink at least 64 ounces of water every day. Water helps keep our body working properly and cleanses us of harmful toxins that actually are the main reasons why people are fat and overweight.
Listen to what your mother said and eat your vegetables. Vegetables provide your body with the nutrition that it needs to regenerate, heal itself, stay healthy, burn fat and lose weight. Try eating your vegetables first when you have your meals. Vegetables are very filling and will prevent you from overeating.
You should eat our first meal within the first hour of waking up and you should eat every 3 – 4 hours after that. This means that you should be eating 5 – 6 small meals a day. Each meal should include a little bit of protein, good healthy fats and a lot of nutritious vegetables. Eating like this will make you more healthy, speed up your metabolism and help you lose weight fast.
Avoid eating foods that are loaded with sugar. If you eat them they will just make you fat.
You should sleep at least 7 – 9 hours each night. When you sleep seven consecutive hours a night your body increases its natural production of human growth hormone and this is a natural fat burner. Getting enough sleep also helps decrease and helps prevent the production of stress hormones like cortisol.
Making good healthy lifestyle changes like eating good food, exercising properly and getting enough sleep will help you achieve and maintain the body you desire.
