Weight loss will affect everyone differently, but without a doubt, the effects of weight loss are generally positive.

Personal Consultation

During your consultation, you will be invited to discuss your weight loss goals with a trained professional. They will assess your health and help you develop a plan that is right for you. Your medical weight loss plan will be comprised of a personalized diet and exercise regimen, as well as any other medical interventions that are recommended.

Weight loss is often so challenging because we tie our emotions to food and a certain lifestyle. We will help connect you with the forms of support and resources that will help you take back control of your body, your health, and your confidence.

How We Help You Lose Weight

Eating and overeating have a mental and emotional impact. Some people’s dietary habits are tied to social behaviors, while other individuals may turn to food to help them cope with anxiety. Emotional eating is a big thing people strive to cut out of their lives. Food can be relied on too much. This includes snacking when stressed or eating chocolate when you’re sad.

Setting up a boundary between food as an indulgence and food as a necessity will be a crucial step to creating healthy eating choices.

Gaining control over food is often a large part of losing weight and developing a healthy diet.

Along with developing a healthy meal plan for you, we will work with you to create an exercise plan that caters to your interests and weight loss needs. An activity you love – like running or swimming – will help you create a healthy habit, thereby boosting your metabolism and encouraging future weight loss. It’s important that the exercise you implement in your weight loss program is something you enjoy.

Lastly, we will help you develop healthy behaviors that inspire weight loss and healthy living. This often includes cutting out snacking and turning towards a positive activity when you are stressed. Support groups and counseling, when paired with a medically-advised plan to change your daily behaviors, will help you assess and redefine your relationship with food so that you can be empowered to make real, long-lasting change.

There is no one perfect weight loss solution: we will help you achieve your results with a treatment plan that accommodates your unique physiology and personal preferences. Comprehensive tests will be conducted and we will learn all about your medical history and lifestyle to develop your best medical weight loss program.

Results

Everyone has their own weight loss goals, physical restraints, and eating restrictions. What works well for one person may not work well for another. We put an emphasis on creating a personal weight loss plan that is customized to you and your body. There are so many factors to consider when creating a healthy way to lose weight that it’s difficult to say when you will begin seeing changes in your weight. Your body will likely shed water weight before it begins burning your unwanted stores of fat. Rapid weight loss can put strain on the organs and lead to mood swings: we will work with you to make sure you are making healthy progress and adjust your plan as needed. You will see results in the months after you start your medical weight loss plan. Patients who maintain the habits they learn at Dr. Grant Hamlet will be healthier and slimmer for the long-term! 

We will be with you each step of the way to help you, encourage you and make adjustments so your weight loss goal becomes reality.

Complementary Procedures

Once your weight loss goals are achieved, a cosmetic procedure can be used to maximize all the effort you put into transforming your body.

“Lift” Procedures

A common side effect of significant weight loss is stretched, loose skin that cannot retract to its former shape. For patients who underwent dramatic weight loss, a “lift” procedure may be best. A lift procedure will excise excess skin and return a natural, smooth shape back to your body. At Dr. Grant Hamlet, we specialize in arm lifts, body lifts, breast lifts and face lifts.

Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck is similar to a lift procedure but includes repairing and tightening the abdominal muscles. This procedure is often perfect for mothers focusing on regaining their pre-baby body but can also be a big help to someone after losing a small or moderate amount of weight.

Vaser Liposuction

Combining ultrasonic technology with liposuction techniques allows our surgeons to provide impressive contours along the body. This technique is a great way to get rid of those last fat stores that are resistant to diet and exercise. Liposuction removes fat cells for good and will help you look your best.

Once you are within the range of your ideal weight, Dr. Hamlet and you can determine if one of these procedures will be the perfect final touch on your hard work!
