Signs You Might Need a Medical Weight Loss Program

From limiting the number of calories that you take in each day to exercising, there are quite a few things that you can do to lose weight. However, it’s sometimes difficult to lose weight on your own. Here are a few of the signs that you might need to consider a medical weight loss program to either help you get jump-started on your journey or help you reach your overall goal for the duration of the time you’re trying to lose weight.

Exercising should be something that you enjoy doing. It shouldn’t seem like a chore or like you’re unable to move around. If you find that it’s hard to even walk short distances without getting winded, then you should consider a weight loss program that offers the medical support that you need for the physical activities that you can perform.

One sign that could indicate that you need a medical weight loss program is that you snore at night. While snoring could be a result of an illness, allergies, or even the humidity levels in your home, it can also result from being overweight. If you notice that you wake yourself up at night because you can’t breathe after snoring or if others in your home have observed you snoring loudly, then consider visiting our office to find out how to get started with our weight loss program.

Sometimes, you might experience pain in areas of your body where you haven’t been injured or where there shouldn’t be any kind of pain at all simply because your BMI is too high. The fatty tissues that are just underneath your skin can become inflamed, resulting in tenderness and a feeling of being swollen. You could even notice areas of minor bruising on your skin from where the tissues are inflamed. If you’re overweight, you might feel tired without doing a lot of physical activity. This is usually because of the excess pressure weighing on your heart, lungs, and other organs, resulting in decreased blood flow throughout your body. Your blood pressure and cholesterol could be high as well, which can both decrease with a medical weight loss program.
