The Nutriplus weight loss program incorporates a well balanced, low calorie diet that allows
you to lose weight "plus" eat "regular" foods. Metabolic Medical Centers have
taken care to arrange the distribution of calories, particularly carbohydrates,
to facilitate the loss of fat weight, retention of muscle mass, and appetite control.
Our Nutriplus Program helps you establish a foundation of dietary habits that
will not only help you reach your weight goal, but will help you maintain your
weight. If you follow the guidelines closely, you will enjoy a steady and safe
weight loss.
This weight loss program focuses on the reduction of carbohydrate rich foods. Metabolic
Medical Centers collective experience, with many years of success, has shown that
this type of diet works very well for persons who are overweight. Reducing the
carbohydrate intake decreases the the demand for the hormone insulin, thus decreasing
your appetite and fat deposits. Overweight individuals have the tendency to be
insulin resistant, a condition that drives up the appetite while causing other
undesirable effects such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
On each visit you will be weighed, have your blood pressure checked and
meet with a medical assistant and doctor. You will also receive any medications
and/or supplements needed until your next visit.
Exercise is essential. Start a program that you can succeed with and continue
to increase the time spent exercising until you reach a weekly goal of 2-3 hours
of moderate activity. When you begin the Nutriplus Program, we advise you to limit
exercise for the first month to allow your body time to adjust to the reduction
in calories. In just a short time, you will find your energy level will be higher
and your drive to exercise will increase. Discuss any exercise plans with your
doctor before you begin.
