Why is it important to maintain a healthy weight?

Maintaining a healthy weight can help with disease prevention and your overall well-being. Excess weight, particularly obesity, increases your risk of serious health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and joint problems. Carrying extra pounds also puts strain on your body, leading to reduced mobility, fatigue, and a lower quality of life. 

On the other hand, when you keep your weight within a healthy range, you experience improved energy, enhanced physical fitness, and better mental health.

What is weight loss management?

At Summit Health Family and Urgent Care, the team’s weight loss management plan offers a structured approach to help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight. They provide a combination of dietary changes, physical activity, behavioral adjustments, and medical support when necessary. 

Rather than focusing on quick fixes, their weight loss management plan emphasizes sustainable and realistic lifestyle changes that promote long-term success.

How does professional weight loss management work?

Professional weight loss management involves working with the Summit Health Family and Urgent Care providers, such as doctors, dietitians, and weight loss specialists, to develop a personalized plan. You can expect the following:

• Initial assessment: a comprehensive evaluation of your medical history, current weight, lifestyle habits, and health goals
• Customized nutrition plan: guidance on balanced, portion-controlled meals tailored to your needs
• Exercise recommendations: a fitness plan suited to your abilities and weight loss goals
• Behavioral support: counseling or coaching to address emotional eating, motivation, and habit formation
• Medical interventions (if needed): prescription medications, meal replacement programs, or nonsurgical treatment recommendations like endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) for those struggling with traditional weight loss methods

The team also provides regular follow-ups to track your progress, modifies your plan if needed, and offers continued support.

What are the benefits of weight loss management?

A well-managed weight loss plan offers numerous health benefits, including:

• Reduced risk of chronic diseases (such as diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension)
• Increased energy and mobility
• Improved mental health (reducing stress, anxiety, and depression)
• Long-term success through ongoing maintenance
• Enhanced overall quality of life (feel more confident, active, and in control of your health)
