Appearances Weight Loss

What's Involved

B-12 "Fat Burner" Injection

The chemical process of burning fat requires certain vitamins and amino acids that should be in our diet. However, if you are low in any of these ingredients, then your fat burning will not be at its maximum. Although, a standard vitamin tablet may supply these ingredients, they frequently do not supply enough of these to maximally stimulate the fat burning process. We utilize an injection with vitamin B-12 and other “fat burners”. These consist of the B vitamins as well as other factors that are needed by the body. Although, the injection by itself will not burn fat, it does provide the body with all the necessary tools in order to burn fat at is maximum. A monthly injection of B12 is part of the weight loss plan. However, studies have shown that utilizing this injection more than once a month does speed up the fat burning process and the option of obtaining these injections more than once monthly is available.

Phentermine

One of the first steps in successful weight loss is controlling hunger, appetite and food cravings. We utilize prescription diet pills to help curb the appetite, speed up the metabolism, and stimulate extra energy production. This medication is a stimulant and therefore, may have stimulate side effects. These may include nervousness, palpitations, and insomnia. Many people do not get any of these side effects. Those that do have a side effect, report that the side effect only lasts for the first few days of taking the medication and then goes away. Elevating the blood pressure does not seem to be a common side effect of this medication. In our experience, we have seen blood pressure go up in one person per 1000 people who take this medication. These medications have been on the market for several decades and have a long safety record. Many of these medications come in multiple strengths and the physician will determine which strength is appropriate for you.

Healthy eating begins with learning how to eat smart. It’s not just what you eat, but how you eat. Learning to think differently about food can be challenging, but we have made it easy!

We focus on helping you lose weight in a healthy way. We will work with you on developing new habits that you can use for the rest of your life.

Supplements

For convenience to our patients, we do have food supplements available in our office. They can be recommended as meal replacements or can also be used in addition to regular meals as snacks in between meals.

Food supplements ensure that individuals receive optimal nutrition during weight loss. Our protein supplements contain 23 grams of high quality protein per serving to maximize preservation of lean body mass during weight loss. Protein has been known to greatly increase metabolism and energy levels. Those who consume the proper amounts of protein have a greater ability to turn their food into energy, rather than into fat stores. Getting enough protein can increase your energy levels and give you everything you need to feel healthy and get through the day.

Advantages of protein supplements:

  • Protein supplements are generally a more complete and balanced protein source.
  • Protein supplements are often fortified with vitamins and minerals, making them a multi-dimensional protein food.
  • Protein supplements can serve as a low-calorie means to satisfy your sweet tooth.
  • Protein supplements are more convenient, and require little to no cleanup.
  • Protein supplements are much less temperature sensitive, and generally require no refrigeration or heating.


Protein has a wide variety of benefits and these are just a few. Make sure you have an adequate intake of protein and you are sure to keep feeling and functioning at your peak potential. If you do not feel that your diet is providing you with the proper amounts of necessary amino acids, try a liquid protein supplement to achieve your desired results.
