Losing weight is often more difficult than it should be. Sometimes, the pounds don't drop away even if you exercise or try a new diet. Fortunately, Dr. Antoine Geffrard of RMS Consultations in Southfield, MI, can help you find a weight loss approach that really works for you.
The problem with diets
Every diet promises amazing results. Fad diet authors claim you'll lose weight rapidly, feel more energetic than ever and improve your health after just a few weeks on the diet. Although every diet works for some people, all diets don't work for everyone.
Metabolism, body type, eating habits, lifestyle, and genetics all play a part in your ability to lose weight and keep it off. A diet that worked for your friend may do absolutely nothing for you. Even worse, some fad diets may actually damage your health or cause you to gain weight. Since most people consider diets short-term solutions, they may soon go back to their old eating habits.
What to do when you can't lose weight
Everyone can lose weight with the right weight-loss method. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to figure out which diet or eating plan will really help you lose weight. If you've been struggling to lose weight, a consultation at Dr. Geffrard's Southfield, MI, office can help you find a plan that works for you.
During the consultation, you'll discuss your past attempts at weight loss, your medical history, health conditions, medications you take, family history, lifestyle, and the type of exercise you enjoy.
You'll receive recommendations that will help you create an eating plan that includes plenty of healthy foods but also offers a little leeway to indulge in a piece of birthday cake or pizza occasionally. Changing the way you eat, rather than dieting, offers a more realistic, sustainable way to lose weight.
You'll learn tips that will help you stay motivated when you're feeling stressed or having trouble resisting temptation. Do you hate to exercise? Working out doesn't have to involve running marathons or 200 push-ups a day. Your consultation will include exercise suggestions that will help you increase your activity level and get your heart pumping without leaving you feeling exhausted or bored.
