Whether you’re working hard to turn around a diagnosis like Diabetes, want reach a healthier BMI or simply aim to feel better and get more active, our staff is here to help. Linda Simon, manager of Medical Weight Loss Clinic’s Royal Oak location, understands how planning, scheduling and preparing for success on a consistent basis can mean a world of difference to her patients. She sees it every day.
“I always highlight the importance of being consistent when it comes to weight loss,” Linda says. “A healthy, steady loss is much better for long term success - which is what everyone wants.”
To start, Linda assists her patients with developing new routines to help reach their weight loss and health goals. She reminds them to be patient with themselves while developing these new routines. It can take time to adjust to the changes and to building in time for food planning and preparation each day. It does get easier. And whenever a patient feels challenged, she reminds them that support is always nearby.
“Coming into our clinic and meeting with a weight loss consultant helps our patients stay on track and stay accountable,” says Linda. “We go over their daily diet and exercise goals as well as helping them with any upcoming challenges they may face. Our support and guidance throughout their entire program helps with their weight loss success.”
At Medical Weight Loss Clinic, there is always someone on your side. For those getting used to a new routine, the first meal of the day is crucial, Linda says.
“It wakes up your metabolism,” she adds. “I'm always surprised at the number of people who skip breakfast! It's important to eat every few hours because it also stimulates your metabolism.”
But that’s not all. Linda and her team are armed and ready with proven advice on how to reach those tough weight loss goals.
“Our patients learn that it's best to consume fruit before 6 p.m. due to its natural sugar content,” she says. “At Medical Weight Loss Clinic, you will not only learn how to eat for today, but how to eat for the rest of your life.”
Each program is customized for what the patient needs. By consistently following the path set forth by Medical Weight Loss Clinic professionals, it’s possible to achieve a healthy goal in a healthy and efficient way.
Linda encourages her patients to pre-plan and prepare meals ahead of time – to avoid choosing foods that won’t support their journey when their schedules get busy, And she’s a fan of exercise as a tool toward weight loss and a great stress-reliever, even if it’s in short intervals throughout the day.
“I always encourage patients to make their weight loss journey a top priority,” Linda says.
