Ensuring Your Success with Long-term Support

RIGHTWeigh

Obesity is a chronic condition; therefore, the solution is not just about weight loss.  The ultimate goal is keeping the weight off.  We strongly advise you to participate in our ongoing weight management support group.  Doing so will help you apply the lifestyle and weight management skills you learned while losing weight.  This program will provide you with the support and information that is an essential part of maintaining long-term weight control.

You will be introduced to this weekly lifestyle-oriented program upon completion of the transition phase of your program.  The first 12 weeks are offered free of charge, but the classes are continually updated so that you can attend beyond the initial 12 weeks for a nominal fee.  Furthermore, if you lost weight through using meal replacements, you will still have the option to purchase and use the products as additional support.

Monthly Digest

  • Preventing a Weight Loss Disaster

  • We all want to make our family and friends happy, and many of us go to great extents to put a smile on others faces. But how much do you sacrifice your own needs to satisfy others happiness? Perhaps, for example, your children ask for pizza for dinner. While you might be focusing on your weight loss goals, you may suddenly feel guilty about not taking your children to the movies yesterday after you promised them they could go, and if you aren’t prepared then this feeling of guilt may drive to merge from your weight loss plan.

  • How Obesity May Affect the Brain

  • According to a recent study, obesity may affect areas of the brain that control appetite and the impulse to eat–and overeat. While many people argue that losing weight is all about self-control, medical weight loss specialists understand that obesity is a struggle that many people have difficulty attempting to overcome. Weight loss clinics in Baton Rouge can help you to overcome the impact that obesity has had on your mind and help you to begin living a healthier lifestyle.

  • Becoming Aware of your Hunger Cues

  • Often times when we are having a bad day, we gravitate towards something that makes us feel comfortable. Most comfort foods aren’t packed with nutrients, and aren’t being eaten and consumed because of hunger. Emotional or “head hunger” differs greatly from physical hunger. Emotional eating can be a day-to-day occurrence that most people live with without even fully understanding or realizing. Obesity is one of the largest health problems we face today, and without separation between head and physical hunger, it is often very difficult to make a long term change.
