Talk to Your Doctor About Weight Loss

There are many causes for weight imbalances in people of all ages throughout the United States. Unwanted weight gain can cause serious physical and emotional issues for people who struggle to lose weight or to keep it off, especially when the extra weight persists in spite of living a healthy lifestyle.

The road to successful, healthy weight loss is not an easy one for many people. It isn’t always the food choices you make or your lack of exercise. When a doctor evaluates you for weight loss, there are many other factors that can be considered.

While you may be tempted to avoid your doctor when you are overweight, their medical supervision and support can be just what you need to reach your weight loss goals. Medical weight loss provides a customized program that takes a collaborative approach to diagnosing underlying causes for your bodyweight struggles.

What is Really Causing Your Weight Gain?

At the office of Dr. Banhuri, we consider a variety of potential causes for your weight loss challenges, such as glucose/insulin imbalance, hormonal imbalance, thyroid issues, malabsorption and other factors that can impact your inability to lose weight despite proper diet and exercise. We can help patients through nutritional and lifestyle counseling with diet plans, exercise routines and FDA-approved medications.

The Value of Customized Programs

While there are countless popular weight loss methods available, such as workout videos, taking a weight loss pill or trying an elimination diet, these are often “cookie cutter” approaches that are not customized for each individual patient. Not every body type is the same, which means that regular weight loss methods or fad diets may not be the answer to your weight problems. If you have tried multiple weight loss methods without success, it may be time to visit your physician for a safer, more sustainable and more customized weight loss plan.

Call the office of Daniel Benhuri MD for medical weight loss. You can trust our team to work hard to alleviate the struggle of losing weight by identifying key factors and/or body imbalances that could be influencing your inability to shed pounds.
