Weight Loss > Medication & Weight Loss

For some people medication can help jumpstart your weight loss effort. For others who have difficulty adopting and maintaining lifestyle changes, or for whom serious weight loss efforts have not been successful in the past, medication can be a very valuable tool.

When appropriate, our physician may recommend medications such as Xenical®, Meridia® or Alli®. Medications can lose their effectiveness over time, so it's very important not to rely on medication alone.

You can rely on MinDshape's well-rounded weight loss approach that includes:

• Working with a nutritionist to create a realistic eating plan
• Metabolic testing to personalize your weight loss plan
• Setting personalized objectives for weight and wellness
• Encouraging self-awareness and monitoring
• Motivating family participation and support
• Skills needed to manage high-risk situations
• Techniques to maintain weight loss and prevent relapse
• Suggestions for exercise programs to maximize fitness, strength and flexibility

Losing weight now can help avoid the onset of health problems like diabetes, high blood pressure, and PCOS. It can be just as important to reduce the tension you feel at meals and help give you back pleasure in eating.
