Our VIP Medical Weight Loss staff wants to help you lose weight.

Our boca raton weight loss program wants you to know that in order to lose weight successfully, you need to make healthy lifestyle changes. The first step in losing weight is making a commitment. Making the decision to lose weight, change your lifestyle, and become healthier is a big step to take and it can be very difficult. You will want to start simply by making a commitment to yourself. You may even find it helpful to sign a written contract that explains that you are committing to the process. This contract may include items like the amount of weight you want to lose, the date you'd like to lose the weight by, the dietary changes you'll make to establish healthy eating habits, and a plan for getting regular physical activity. When you write down the reasons why you want to lose weight it can also help you remain motivated. Your reasons for wanting to lose weight may be because you have a family history of heart disease, or because you want to see your kids get married, or simply because you want to feel better in your clothes. You should post these reasons somewhere where you can see them daily. This way they will serve as a daily reminder of why you want to make this huge lifestyle change. We want to help you make this commitment to losing weight and we can help you reach your weight loss goals.

Our staff at VIP medical weight loss in Boca Raton can help you reach your goals.

You will need to determine where you are at with your weight and your health. Some people talk to their health care provider when they are ready to lose weight. He or she can evaluate your height, weight, and explore other weight-related risk factors you may have. However, when you join our program, our doctor will complete a thorough medical examination. This will be done so that they can rule out any diseases that you may have that could be preventing you from losing weight. Another reason that we will conduct this

medical examination is so that we can make sure that you are remaining safe and healthy during your weight loss journey. Another great idea is to keep a "food diary" for a few days. This is where you write down everything you eat. By doing this, you become more aware of what you are eating and when you are eating. By becoming aware of what you are putting into your body, it can help you avoid mindless eating. You will also want to take a look at your current lifestyle. At this time you can identify things that might pose challenges to your weight loss efforts. Maybe you have to travel a lot for work and therefore it is difficult for you to stick to an exercise routine. If you buy sugary snacks for your kids, maybe you get stuck munching on them as well.  Maybe your coworkers frequently bring high-calorie items, such as doughnuts, to the workplace to share with everyone, and you don’t think twice before eating one. All of these are reasons that your weight loss may become stalled. You will want to make sure that you sit down and think of things you can do to help overcome these challenges. Finally, think about aspects of your lifestyle that can help you lose weight. Maybe on your lunch break you can hit the gym that is around the corner for a quick 30 minute walk. If there is a mall nearby your work, you can take your lunch break to walk around and window shop.

Our weight loss program that is doctor supervised in boca raton wants to help you set realistic goals.

Make sure that you set some short-term goals and reward your efforts along the way. If your long-term goal is to lose 50 pounds so that you can control your high blood pressure then some short-term eating and physical activity goals might be to start eating a healthy breakfast, taking a 15 minute walk in the evenings, or having a salad or vegetable with supper instead of fries. You will want to focus on two or three goals at a time. Some great and effective goals will be:

·         Specific

·         Realistic

·         Forgiving (less than perfect)

You will not want to make your goal be to exercise more. This is not specific. Instead, make it your goal to walk for 15 min, 3 days a week. Remember that small changes every day can lead to big results in the long run. Also remember that as long as you are setting realistic goals, they are achievable goals. By achieving your short-term goals day-by-day, you'll feel good about your progress which will motivate you to continue. If you set unrealistic goals, such as losing 20 pounds in 2 weeks, it can leave you feeling defeated and frustrated. When you are being realistic with your goals, it also means that you know to expect occasional setbacks. Setbacks happen when you get away from your plan for any reason. When these setbacks happen, it is important that you get back on track as quickly as possible. You will also want to take some time to think about what you would do differently if a similar situation happens, to prevent setbacks. Just keep in mind everyone is different and what works for someone else might not be right for you. You will want to try a variety of activities to see what you enjoy most and can fit into your life.

Our VIP Medical Weight Loss staff can be your support system.

It is important that you have family members or friends who will support your weight loss efforts. It will be much easier to make lifestyle changes when you have others that you can talk to and rely on for support. You might have coworkers or neighbors with similar goals, and together you can share healthful recipes and plan group exercise nights. When you join our program, we will make sure that we help you build a helpful support system so that you will be successful. You will also want to continually "check in" with yourself to monitor your progress. This means that you will want to revisit the goals you set for yourself and evaluate your progress regularly. If you set a goal to walk each morning but are having trouble fitting it in before work, see if you can shift your work hours or if you can get your walk in at lunchtime or even after work. Make sure that you reward yourself for your successes! Recognize when you're meeting your goals and be proud of your progress.
