Weight Loss

How can I lose weight?  

Food is all around us.  Portions have increased.  Everything has been upsized over the last 20 years.  Calories are everywhere (some think they are hiding in the closet).  

Technology is making everything easier.  While exciting to most people, it is also decreasing our exercise and tolerance to physical activity.  

More food and less exercise are making our waistlines grow and raising the risks of disease.  Diseases associated with being overweight are shortening our lives.  

MaxHealth Family, Internal, & Sports Medicine strives to educate and help patients needing help with weight loss.  Losing weight is not easy.  If it were, no one would be overweight.  This age of abundance is making it harder and harder to make good choices for a healthy body.  

Most patients do not realize that their family physician should be the first person to contact if you want to lose weight.  Our practice has the expertise and resources to help you shed the pounds and make a healthier life.  

We offer diet and nutrition counseling to structure a diet that will work for you, taking take into account any underlying conditions that may be hindering your weight loss goals, as well as counseling for effective exercise practices to burn off calories and make the body slimmer and work more efficiently.  

While diet and exercise are the best options for healthy weight loss, we can also discuss any medical options that could be available to help.  Text 817-663-8162 or call 817-355-8000 for a consultation today.
