5 Ways Weight Loss Affects Your Whole Body

Have you been thinking about starting a weight loss program?  If so, here is some great news:  Losing even just 5% of your body weight can improve your health in major ways, says the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. You'll see benefits in different parts of your body and in controlling chronic conditions.

1. HEART HEALTH Shedding only a few pounds can lower blood pressure, increase levels of HDL or "good" cholesterol and decrease levels of LDL "bad" cholesterol.

2. EASE KNEE AND FOOT PAIN Every pound you lose reduces the pressure on your knees when you walk. Losing weight reduces stress on bones and other structures in your feet.

3. SLEEP APNEA Weight loss can reverse mild obstructive sleep apnea and improve sleep.

4. DIABETES Losing 10 to 15 pounds can help you control your blood sugar levels with lower doses of medication.

5. FEWER BACK ACHES Losing excess body fat can relieve pressure on disks in the lower spine.

When you enroll in a Medical Weight Loss Clinic program, the length of your program will be determined by you and the staff based on the amount of weight you want to lose and how quickly you want to lose it. Your actual weight loss will be determined by many factors, including, but not limited to: your medical circumstances, the plan you choose, adherence to the meal plan and use of nutritional supplements. Your goal and program duration information will be given to you in writing at the time of enrollment. As your program progresses, the rate you lose weight may change and you will have the opportunity to discuss this at every daily visit with your weight loss consultant, where changes to your meal plan and/or program can be made.
