Personalized Weight Loss Planning to Help You Thrive
The reasons a person may struggle to lose weight are often complex. However, most traditional weight loss programs present a one-size-fits-all approach that will not fully address the causes of weight gain. At MediThrive, we take a different path. It’s our goal to identify why you might be struggling to reach your target weight, delivering a custom plan that removes your obstacles to progress.
Common Reasons for Weight Gain
Weight gain is often presented as a simple matter – just excess calories and lack of exercise. But while these factors are crucial in maintaining a healthy weight over time, they don’t provide the insights needed to make a real long-term difference. The following reasons are among the most common examples of root-cause issues contributing to weight gain.
- Hormonal Imbalances
- Metabolic Dysfunction
- Poor Gut Health
- Chronic Stress
- Sedentary Lifestyle
- Unhealthy Eating Habits
- Medication Side Effects
- Sleep Disorders
- Genetic Factors
- Environmental Toxins
To determine the best weight loss approach, our practitioners will thoroughly assess your health, including a detailed medical history and lifestyle evaluation. We also use functional lab tests to identify the factors contributing to weight gain (or frustration with weight loss progress).
Our Weight Loss Services
At MediThrive, we offer services that contribute significantly to healthy weight loss.
Weight Loss Medications
Advanced weight loss medications, such as semaglutide and tirzepatide, may be incorporated into your personalized treatment plan. When used in conjunction with lifestyle modifications and under the guidance of our licensed healthcare providers, these medications can help support your weight loss efforts.
Weight loss medications help patients achieve weight loss by suppressing appetite. When accompanied by lifestyle changes, results are typically maintained over the long term.
Health Coaching
Our dedicated health coaching service contributes to successful weight loss by offering consistent support, guidance and accountability. A personalized weight loss plan provides a clear path towards better health and improved wellness, and a health coach ensures you’ll have the physical and emotional tools to stay on track. Through goal setting, regular check-ins and progress monitoring, our health coaches empower you to make sustainable lifestyle changes and overcome challenges. This cultivates a positive mindset that promotes long-term success.
